Paraffin-embedded human liver tissue stained for CYP7A1 with ab234982 at 1/300 dilution in immunohistochemical analysis.

After dewaxing and hydration, antigen retrieval was mediated by high pressure in a citrate buffer (pH 6.0). Section was blocked with 10% normal goat serum 30 minutes at RT. Then primary antibody (1% BSA) was incubated at 4°C overnight. The primary is detected by a biotinylated secondary antibody and visualized using an HRP conjugated SP system.

CYP7A1 also known as cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase plays an important role as an enzyme in the liver. It has a molecular mass of approximately 57 kDa. This enzyme catalyzes the rate-limiting step in the catabolism of cholesterol to bile acids by converting cholesterol to 7 alpha-hydroxycholesterol. The expression of CYP7A1 is mainly in the liver where its activity is important for maintaining cholesterol and bile acid homeostasis.
Biological function summary

Cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase plays an important role in the primary pathway for bile acid biosynthesis. It not only affects the breakdown of cholesterol but also influences lipid metabolism. Although it does not function as part of a larger protein complex CYP7A1 activity is a critical point of regulation within these metabolic processes. Its efficiency can affect plasma cholesterol levels hence impacting overall lipid homeostasis.

Pathways

CYP7A1 is central to the classical pathway of bile acid synthesis. In this pathway it interacts directly with several other proteins including HMG-CoA reductase which is involved in cholesterol synthesis. Additionally CYP7A1 activity influences the regulatory axis of liver X receptors (LXR) which serve to manage cholesterol fatty acids and glucose homeostasis. The balance between these pathways determines cholesterol levels in the body and can modulate metabolic health.

Dysfunction or altered regulation of CYP7A1 contributes significantly to hypercholesterolemia and gallstone disease. Changes in CYP7A1 expression can result in imbalances in cholesterol levels leading to these conditions. The protein's activity is often compared to mitochondrial enzymes related to bile acid synthesis such as CYP27A1 connecting them both in the intricate network of cholesterol regulation.

Target data

A cytochrome P450 monooxygenase involved in the metabolism of endogenous cholesterol and its oxygenated derivatives (oxysterols) (PubMed : 11013305, PubMed : 12077124, PubMed : 19965590, PubMed : 21813643, PubMed : 2384150). Mechanistically, uses molecular oxygen inserting one oxygen atom into a substrate, and reducing the second into a water molecule, with two electrons provided by NADPH via cytochrome P450 reductase (CPR; NADPH-ferrihemoprotein reductase) (PubMed : 11013305, PubMed : 12077124, PubMed : 19965590, PubMed : 21813643, PubMed : 2384150). Functions as a critical regulatory enzyme of bile acid biosynthesis and cholesterol homeostasis. Catalyzes the hydroxylation of carbon hydrogen bond at 7-alpha position of cholesterol, a rate-limiting step in cholesterol catabolism and bile acid biosynthesis (PubMed : 12077124, PubMed : 19965590, PubMed : 2384150). 7-alpha hydroxylates several oxysterols, including 4beta-hydroxycholesterol and 24-hydroxycholesterol (PubMed : 11013305, PubMed : 12077124). Catalyzes the oxidation of the 7,8 double bond of 7-dehydrocholesterol and lathosterol with direct and predominant formation of the 7-keto derivatives (PubMed : 21813643).
