Brain cholesterol: XVI. Incorporation of different precursors into baboon tissue sterol

  • Published:
Lipids

Abstract

The relative order of incorporation of 1-C14-acetate and 2-3H-acetate into tissue cholesterol was similar. Short term fasting tended to decrease incorporation of acetate into liver and adrenal sterol. Other tissues, particularly neural, had the same or showed an increased incorporation. This relative order of incorporation found for acetate was different when U-14C-glucose was used. Cholesterol values from neural tissue after glucose were greater than non-neural sterol values.
