Although widely distributed throughout mammalian tissues, the biological function of cholesterol sulfate remains largely unknown. In these studies we have demonstrated that cholesterol sulfate suppresses de novo sterol synthesis in cultured human fibroblasts. It was further shown in these cultured cells that cholesterol sulfate is a potent inhibitor of the enzyme, 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase (mevalonate: NADP+oxidoreductase (CoA-acylating), EC 1.1.1.34), the rate-limiting enzyme in cholesterol biosynthesis and the site at which exogenous cholesterol suppresses endogenous cholesterol synthesis. Because cholesterol sulfate inhibited sterologenesis in steroid-sulfatase deficient fibroblasts derived from patients with recessive X-linked ichthyosis, it was inferred that cholesterol sulfate per se and not cholesterol liberated by intracellular desulfation was the inhibitor in these studies. Cholesterol sulfate may be an endogenous regulator of mammalian cholesterol biosynthesis.
