Biosynthesis of cholesterol in rabbit reticulocytes and its exchange with plasma
When rabbit reticulocytes were incubated in normal blood plasma containing mevalonic acid-2-(14)C, radioactivity was incorporated into cholesterol, cholesteryl esters, and squalene in the cells. The squalene reached a steady level of radioactivity much more rapidly than did cholesterol. Rabbit retic...
