Product Description

Cholesterol 5beta,6beta-epoxide is an oxysterol produced as an oxidation product of cholesterol. Oxysterols are cytotoxic and induce death in monocytes, smooth muscle cells and endothelial cells. The mechanism of apoptosis induced by oxysterols may involve caspases or DNA fragmentation. Synonyms: (3beta,5beta,6beta)-5,6-Epoxycholestan-3-ol, 5,6beta-Epoxy-5beta-cholestan-3beta-ol, 5,6beta-Epoxycholesterol, 5beta,6beta-Epoxycholestan-3beta-ol, 5beta,6beta-Epoxycholesterol, Cholesterol 5beta,6beta-epoxide, Cholesterol beta-epoxide, Cholesterol-5beta,6beta-oxide, NSC 148940, 5,6beta-Epoxy-5beta-cholestan-3beta-ol CAS No: 4025-59-6 Molecular Formula: C27H46O2 Molecular Weight: 402.65 Appearance: Crystalline solid Purity: 95% Melting Point: 135-136°C Solubility: DMF: 2mg/ml DMSO: 0.1mg/ml Ethanol: 20mg/ml Ethanol:PBS (pH 7.2)(1:2): 0.3mg/ml Solution should be purged with an inert gas.
