Regulatory effects of sterols and bile acids on hepatic 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl CoA reductase and cholesterol 7α-hydroxylase in the rat

Specific activities of the hepatic microsomal enzymes 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl CoA (HMG CoA) reductase and cholesterol 7α-hydroxylase were studied in rats fed sterols and bile acids. The administration of bile acids (taurocholate, taurodeoxycholate, taurochenodeoxycholate) at a level of 1% of the...
