27-hydroxy Cholestenone
27-Hydroxycholestenone is an oxysterol intermediate in the synthesis of DAF-12 nuclear receptor ligands, such as dafachronic acid. Its levels are significantly increased in Cyp46a1 knockout mouse brains, making it a valuable tool for studying cholesterol metabolism and nuclear receptor signaling in neurodegenerative and aging research models.
