Abstract: | The cholesterol oxidation products (oxysterols) cholest-3,5-diene-7-one, cholestan-5 , 6 -epoxy-3β-ol (cholesterol 5 -epoxide), cholestan-5β,6β-epoxy-3β-ol (cholesterol 5β-epoxide), cholest-5-ene-3β-ol-7-one (7-ketocholesterol), cholest-5-ene-3β,7 -diol (7 -hydroxycholesterol), cholestan-3β,5 ,6β-triol (choestane triol), and cholest-5-ene-3β,26-diol (27-hydroxycholesterol) potentiated platelet aggregation and increased thromboxane A2 formation in platelets challenged with thrombin, ADP or collagen. These effects were observed at oxysterol concentrations in the range 5–100 μM. Cholesterol 5β-epoxide and 7-ketocholesterol increased the mobilization of 3H-arachidonic acid from prelabelled platelet phospholipids in response to thrombin and collagen. |
