The relationship between the rate of hepatic sterol synthesis and the incorporation of [3H]water.

The true rate of sterol synthesis in liver cells was determined by measurement of the weight of desmosterol produced over a given time period during incubations in the presence of triparanol. The simultaneous presence of tritiated water (3H2O) during the incubations permitted a direct observation of...
