Absolute rates of cholesterol synthesis in rat intestine in vitro and in vivo: a comparison of different substrates in slices and isolated cells

In an effort to localize small intestinal sterol synthesis both along the length of the intestine and along the villus-crypt axis, we defined the optimal conditions to measure absolute rates of digitonin-precipitable sterol (DPS) synthesis in whole intestinal slices and in isolated epithelial cells....
