Background:
5β,6β-epoxy Cholestanol is an oxidative metabolite of cholesterol that is formed via radical and non-radical oxidation of cholesterol at the 5,6-double bond. It induces release of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and apoptosis in macrophage-differentiated U937 cells. 5β,6β-epoxy Cholestanol has been found in human fatty streaks and advanced atherosclerotic lesions but is not present in normal aortic tissue.
