Characterization of cholesterol 25-hydroxylase expression in human macrophages
Background Conversion of Cholesterol to 25-HydroxyCholesterol (25HC) by Cholesterol 25-hydroxylase (CH25H) has been shown to exert broad antiviral properties. Given its antiviral activities, CH25H is part of an increasingly appreciated connection between type I interferon (IFN-I) and lipid …

Identification of an Interferon Signaling Pathway Linking Membrane Cholesterol Accessibility to Host Defense Against Pathogens
… Notably, conditioned media from Cholesterol 25-Hydroxylase (CH25H)-expressing cells potently enhanced bacterial resistance of naive cells, suggesting it may be responsible for the previously observed activity in macrophages. Indeed, Ch25h-/- macrophages failed to produce a soluble …

The roles of vitamin D in cutaneous wound healing: In vitro and ex vivo studies of the effect of 1,25(OH)2D3 and its precursors on human dermal fibroblasts and epidermal keratinocytes in cutaneous wound healing
… the active form of the circulating hormone 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3). In target cells, 1,25(OH)2D3 interacts with the specific intracellular vitamin D receptor (VDR), a member of the nuclear receptor superfamily. However, epidermal keratinocytes, in addition to being target cells, …
