An ultrasensitive enzymatic method for measuring mevalonic acid in serum
We have developed a simple, precise, and ultrasensitive enzymatic method for measuring serum mevalonic acid (MVA) concentration, which is thought to be a good indicator of the in vivo cholesterol biosynthesis rate. This assay is based on an enzyme cycling reaction and makes use of HMG-CoA reductase...
