Evidence for an underestimation of the shunt pathway of mevalonate metabolism in slices of livers and kidneys from fasted rats and rats in diabetic ketosis
Yields of (14)CO(2) from [2-(14)C]mevalonate and [5-(14)C]mevalonate have been used by others to estimate the activity of the non-sterol-forming pathway, also called the mevalonate shunt pathway, and yields of (14)C in sterols have been used to estimate the activity of the sterol-forming pathway.
