Other Information

**Key characteristics:** * It is a secreted protein. * It is expressed in a variety of cell types, including lens epithelial cells, macrophages, and hepatocytes. * It is involved in bile acid and bile salt metabolism. **Pathways and functions:** * CYP27A1 is involved in the metabolism of bile acids and bile salts. * It catalyzes the reduction of various bile acids to their corresponding bile salts. * This process is important for the maintenance of bile homeostasis and the elimination of potentially toxic bile acids. **Clinical significance:** * Mutations in the CYP27A1 gene have been linked to several human diseases, including cholestatic liver disease, primary sclerosing cholangitis, and liver cancer. * These mutations can lead to the accumulation of harmful bile acids in the blood, which can damage liver cells and tissues. * Therefore, CYP27A1 inhibitors are being investigated as potential treatments for these diseases.
