Target: Isotope-Labeled Compounds / Endogenous Metabolite. 7alpha-Hydroxycholesterol is an oxysterol produced through both enzymatic (CYP7A1) and non-enzymatic oxidation of cholesterol. It is a key intermediate in the classical bile acid synthesis pathway in the liver and is also a biomarker of lipid peroxidation and oxidative stress.

| ln Vitro |
Drug compounds have included stable heavy isotopes of carbon, hydrogen, and other elements, mostly as quantitative tracers while the drugs were being developed. Because deuteration may have an effect on a drug's pharmacokinetics and metabolic properties, it is a cause for concern [1].
In vitro, 7alpha-Hydroxycholesterol (40 microM) increases levels of the adhesion molecules ICAM-1, VCAM-1, and E-selectin in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). It increases secretion of chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 2 (CCL2) and matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) in THP-1 cells at 5 microg/mL. The labeled standard is an analytical tool, not an active compound. |
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, 7alpha-Hydroxycholesterol has been found in macrophages isolated from atherosclerotic lesions in rabbits fed a high-cholesterol diet. It is associated with pro-inflammatory effects and the progression of atherosclerosis. The labeled standard is used for quantifying these oxysterols in tissues, not for therapeutic administration.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
For cell-free assay: biological samples (plasma, liver tissue, bile) are spiked with the internal standard and subjected to lipid extraction (Folch method). After saponification or direct derivatization (e.g., trimethylsilyl (TMS) ethers), the samples are analyzed by GC-MS or LC-MS. Quantitation is based on the analyte/internal standard peak area ratio.
|
| Cell Assay |
For cell assays: endothelial cells (HUVECs) or macrophages (THP-1) are treated with the unlabeled 7alpha-Hydroxycholesterol (1-40 microM, 24-48 h) to study inflammation. The labeled standard is not used in cell-based assays for efficacy; it is added after cell lysis for LC-MS quantification of endogenous oxysterol levels in the treated cells.
|
| Animal Protocol |
For animal studies: in atherosclerosis research, rabbits or mice are fed a high-cholesterol diet, and tissues (aorta, liver) are collected. The labeled internal standard (7alpha-Hydroxycholesterol-d7) is added during sample processing to quantify the endogenous levels of 7alpha-Hydroxycholesterol and other oxysterols as biomarkers of disease progression.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
PK properties: 7alpha-Hydroxycholesterol is an endogenous intermediate and is rapidly converted to 7alpha-hydroxy-4-cholesten-3-one by the enzyme 3beta-hydroxy-delta5-C27-steroid dehydrogenase (HSD3B7) in the bile acid synthesis pathway. It has a short half-life and does not accumulate. The labeled standard does not exhibit distinct PK behavior.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
No toxicity data are reported for the labeled standard. The unlabeled 7alpha-Hydroxycholesterol is a signaling molecule involved in inflammation and atherosclerosis. At high concentrations, it can induce oxidative stress and endothelial dysfunction. The labeled compound is for research use only and is considered non-hazardous for transport under normal conditions.

| Additional Infomation |
7alpha-Hydroxycholesterol-d7 is a research standard, not a drug. It is not FDA-approved for clinical use. It is used as a stable isotope-labeled internal standard (SIL-IS) for cholesterol and oxysterol measurement in clinical diagnostics, metabolic research, and quality control. The unlabeled metabolite is a key regulatory molecule in bile acid homeostasis and lipid metabolism.
