Novel synthetic oxysterols (22S,23S)-3β-hydroxy-22,23-oxido-5α-ergost-8(14)-en-15-one (I) and (22R,23R)-3β-hydroxy-22,23-oxido-5α-ergost-8(14)-en-15-one (II) efficiently inhibited cholesterol biosynthesis in human hepatoma Hep G2 cell line at a short time incubation in a serum free medium (IC50 = 1.9±0.2 and 0.6±0.2 µМ, respectively). Cultivation of Hep G2 cells in the presence of compound 5 µM concentration of both (I) and (II), led to significant depression of cholesterol biosynthesis (52% and 57% from control), and remarkable changes in fatty acids, triglycerides, and cholesteryl esters biosynthesis. Compounds (I) and (II) stimulated transformation of exogeneous cholesterol to polar products secreted into the culture medium (156% and 175% from control), that was shown in experiments in Hep G2 cells prelabeled with [3H]cholesterol.
