Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Oxysterols are oxygenated derivatives of cholesterol generated from exogenous (food) or endogenous (auto-oxidation and enzymatic conversion) sources. Despite their hepatic capacity to transform into bile acids, oxysterols are present in the blood circulation and central nervous system. This review aims to provide a better understanding of the origins and roles of oxysterols under normal and pathophysiological conditions, such as atherosclerosis and Alzheimer's disease. Oxysterols are metabolites of the cholesterol auto-oxidation pathway present in atherosclerotic plaque and are concomitantly endogenous activators of nuclear receptor liver X receptors known to enhance cholesterol efflux. Despite their honourable role in the gastrointestinal tract and central nervous system, oxysterols have, in general, adverse effects in atherogenesis during which they accumulate and trigger cellular and molecular insults that lead to foam cell formation. This study will discuss the paradox that oxysterols are essential for the normal physiology of the hepatic, central nervous and vascular systems, but that they are also bioactive molecules that lead to adverse effects when they accumulate in the vascular wall.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
