  • Title: [Cholesterol biosynthesis in stomach and intestinal tissue of rat].
    Author: Nikolenko JA, Perederij OF.
    Journal: Ukr Biokhim Zh; 1977; 49(5):70-5. PubMed ID: 919059.
    Abstract:
    Biosynthesis of cholesterol and its precursors (metastenol, latosterol and 7-dehydrocholesterol) was studied in the mucous and serous membranes of small intestine, secretory and esophageal regions of the normal rat stomach. The content of these sterols was also determined. The intensity of sodium 2-14C-acetate incorporation into cholesterol and its precursors in the mucous membrane of the small intestine and stomach secretory region is considerably higher than into the same sterols of the serous membrane and esophageal region. Cholesterol synthesis is most intensive in the small intestine mucous membrane and stomach secretory region.
