    Abstract:
    The effects of 32-oxygenated lanosterol derivatives on 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase activity and cholesterol biosynthesis from [24,25-3H]24,25-dihydrolanosterol were studied. Among the derivatives, 3 beta-hydroxylanost-7-en-32-oic acid was the most active in depressing HMG-CoA reductase activity (IC50: 0.7 microM) and cholesterol biosynthesis (IC50: 0.4 microM) from 24,25-dihydrolanosterol.
