MALDI-IM-MS Imaging of Brain Sterols and Lipids in a Mouse Model of Smith-Lemli-Opitz Syndrome

2023-10-02

Abstract excerpt

Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome (SLOS) is a neurodevelopmental disorder caused by genetic mutations in the DHCR7 gene, which encodes the enzyme 3β-hydroxysterol-Δ 7 -reductase (DHCR7) that catalyzes the last step of cholesterol synthesis, resulting in deficiency in cholesterol and accumulation of its precursor, 7-dehydrocholesterol (7-DHC). To understand how the brain regions are differentially affected by the defect...
