Metabolism of 5 beta-cholestane-3 alpha, 7 alpha, 12 alpha, 26-tetrol and 5 beta-cholestane-3 alpha, 7 alpha, 12 alpha, 25-tetrol into cholic acid in normal human subjects.
Side chain oxidation and cleavage of precursors in cholic acid synthesis is thought to involve initial hydroxylation at either position 25 or 26 of the side chain. Therefore, the conversion of 5 beta-cholestane-3 alpha, 7 alpha, 12 alpha, 26-tetrol and 5 beta-cholestane-3 alpha, 7 alpha, 12 alpha, 2...
