Esterification of Cholesterol by Canine Adrenal Cell Fractions.

Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1965
SummaryCanine adrenal cell fraction (mitochondria, microsomes, and soluble fraction) were found to convert cholesterol-4-C14 to esters and adrenal steroids. The most active cell fraction was mitochondria; mitochondria also contained most of the adrenal cholesterol (as ester). The cholesterol esters synthesized by mitochondria and microsomes contained a

Progesterone blocks intracellular translocation of free cholesterol derived from cholesteryl ester in macrophages.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1995
Macrophage foam cells must accommodate continuing fluxes of free cholesterol in spite of a greatly expanded store of cholesteryl ester. Though endogenous free cholesterol synthesis is suppressed, free cholesterol continues to enter the cell via ...

Comparison of methods for determining the fatty acid composition of photosynthetic tissues [PDF]

The fatty acid (FA) composition of photosynthetic tissue differs from that in other plant or animal tissues. In leaves, the lipid fraction constitutes less than 10% of the dry weight and is mostly located in the chloroplasts. An extraction solvent should
