Isolation and chemical characterization of Δ5,7,24-cholestatrien-3β-ol from pig tissues

Although indirect evidence has implicated Δ5,7,24-cholestatrien-3β-ol a possible intermediate in cholesterol biosynthesis, this sterol has not previously been isolated from tissues. Administration of two inhibitors of cholesterol biosynthesis to pigs led to the accumulation of Δ5,7,24-cholestatrien-...
