Abstract
⺠24,25EC regulates DHCR24, with accumulation of desmosterol, decreasing cholesterol. ⺠DHCR24 inhibition was specific to C-25 oxygenated side-chain oxysterols. ⺠Manipulating endogenous levels of 24,25EC was sufficient to reduce DHCR24 activity. ⺠DHCR24, an important enzyme in human health, is post-transcriptionally regulated.
