Regulation of cholesterol-7α-hydroxylase: BAREly missing a SHP
Cholesterol-7α-hydroxylase (CYP7A1) regulates the pathway through which cholesterol is converted into bile acids. The unique detergent properties of bile acids are essential for the digestion and intestinal absorption of hydrophobic nutrients. Bile acids have potent toxic properties (e.g., membrane...
