Sulphatation does not appear to be a protective mechanism to prevent oxysterol accumulation in humans and mice.

24S- and 27-hydroxycholesterol (24OHC and 27OHC) are potent regulators of different biochemical systems in vitro and are the major circulating oxysterols. A small fraction of these oxysterols has been reported to be sulphated but there are no detailed studies. We considered the possibility that sulp...
