24S,25-Epoxycholesterol in mouse and rat brain
•24S,25-Epoxycholesterol identified and quantified in rodent brain.•Knock out of Cyp27a1 leads to a decrease in 24S,25-epoxycholesterol.•Knock out of Cyp7b1 leads to an increase in 24S,25-epoxycholesterol.•24S,25-Epoxycholesterol is metabolised by Cyp7b1 but not Cyp27a1.
