Abstract

- Oxidation of cholesterol and linoleates induced by free radicals yields 7-OHCh and HODE, respectively.
- During free radical-mediated lipid peroxidation in plasma, the amount of HODE was higher than that of 7-OHCh.
- In contrast to plasma oxidation, cellular cholesterol is more susceptible to oxidation than cellular linoleates.
- Cholesterol oxidation products at the 7-position may be a biomarker of cellular lipid peroxidation.
