Studies on acyl-coenzyme A: cholesterol acyltransferase activity in human liver microsomes.
The aim of the present study was to characterize the acyl-coenzyme A: cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT) activity in human liver microsomes. Liver biopsies were obtained from patients undergoing elective cholecystectomy under highly standardized conditions. In 34 patients the enzyme activity of the...
