5α,6β-Dihydroxycholestanol is an oxysterol metabolite of cholesterol formed from conversion of cholesterol epoxides by 5,6-epoxysterol hydrolase. It inhibits NMDA-mediated calcium influx in HEK293 cells expressing NR1/NR2B NMDA receptors in a concentration-dependent manner. It also binds to voltage-gated sodium (Nav) channels and decreases action potentials in hippocampal neurons in vitro when used at a concentration of 10 uM. It increases survival of spinal cord motoneurons, cortical neurons, and cerebellar granule neurons in vitro when used at concentrations ranging from 5 to 15 uM. 5α,6β-Dihydroxycholestanol is neuroprotective in a rat model of cerebral ischemia when administered at a dose of 12 mg/kg and increases latency to seizure onset and reduces severity of seizures induced by pentylenetetrazole in rats. 5α,6β-Dihydroxycholestanol has been used as a replacement for cholesterol in the study of cholesterol binding proteins.

| General tips | Please select the appropriate solvent to prepare the stock solution according to the
solubility of the product in different solvents; once the solution is prepared, please store it in
separate packages to avoid product failure caused by repeated freezing and thawing.Storage method
and period of the stock solution: When stored at -80°C, please use it within 6 months; when stored
at -20°C, please use it within 1 month. To increase solubility, heat the tube to 37°C and then oscillate in an ultrasonic bath for some time. |
