Sterol synthesis in vivo in 18 tissues of the squirrel monkey, guinea pig, rabbit, hamster, and rat

This study was undertaken to measure and compare the rates at which digitonin-precipitable sterols (DPS) were synthesized in vivo in the major organs of five different animal species. These rates were assessed by measuring the velocity at which [3H]water was incorporated into DPS in the intact anima...
