Sensitive analysis of serum 3α, 7α, 12α,24-tetrahydroxy-5β-cholestan-26-oic acid diastereomers using gas chromatography–mass spectrometry and its application in peroxisomal d-bifunctional protein deficiency

The final steps in bile acid biosynthesis take place in peroxisomes and involve oxidative cleavage of the side chain of C27-5β-cholestanoic acids leading to the formation of the primary bile acids cholic acid and chenodeoxycholic acid. The enoyl-CoA hydratase and β-hydroxy acyl-CoA dehydrogenase rea...
