7α-Hydroxylation of cholestanol by rat liver microsomes
In a study of the mechanism whereby 5α-bile acids are formed from cholestanol, the 7α-hydroxylation of cholestanol was investigated in rat liver preparations in vitro. It was found that in the presence of NADPH and oxygen, rat liver microsomes catalyzed the 7α-hydroxylation of cholestanol to the sam...
