Description

24(S),25-epoxycholesterol is a 3beta-hydroxy-Delta(5)-steroid that is desmosterol in which the double bond at position 24-25 has been oxidised to the corresponding epoxide (the 24S diastereoisomer). It is an oxysterol agonist of the liver X receptor. It has a role as a liver X receptor agonist. It is a cholestanoid, a 3beta-hydroxy-Delta(5)-steroid and an epoxy steroid. It derives from a desmosterol.
