Endogenous sterol synthesis is not required for regulation of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase by low density lipoprotein

It has been proposed that an endogenously synthesized oxysterol mediates the regulation of cholesterol biosynthesis by low density lipoprotein in cultured mammalian cells. Studies in this report demonstrate that under conditions in which squalene conversion to sterols is blocked either by inhibition...
