Abstract

Oxysterols are oxidised forms of cholesterol or its precursors. In this article we will concentrate specifically on those formed in mammalian systems. Oxidation may be catalysed by endogenous enzymes or through reactive oxygen species forming a myriad of potential products. A number of these product...
