Cholesterol biosynthesis by the cornea. Comparison of rates of sterol synthesis with accumulation during early development.
The origin of the cholesterol needed by the cornea for growth and cell turnover was addressed by comparing absolute rates of sterol synthesis with rates of sterol accumulation during early development of the rabbit. Linearity of incorporation of 3H2O and [14C]mevalonate into digitonin-precipitable s...
