Urinary excretion of mevalonic acid as an indicator of cholesterol synthesis
Journal of Lipid Research, 1996 Urinary excretion of mevalonic acid was investigated as an indicator of cholesterol synthesis. In normolipemic volunteers, excretion of mevalonic acid averaged 3.51 +/- 0.59 (SD) micrograms/kg x day1; (n = 24) and was not different from patients with ...

Inhibition of cholesterol biogenesis by arsenite: preparation of labeled lanosterol*
Journal of Lipid Research, 1961 When mevalonic acid-2-C14 was incubated with rat liver homogenate with the usual cofactors plus 10−3 M arsenite, the formation of labeled cholesterol was inhibited and labeled lanosterol accumulated.

Studies on a mevaldic acid reductase of rat liver*
Journal of Lipid Research, 1962 A TPNH-specific mevaldic reductase of rat liver has been partially purified. This enzyme fraction catalyzes the reduction of both optical isomers of mevaldic acid to isomeric mevalonic acids.

Ribonuclease Inhibition of Mevalonic Acid Utilization.
Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1958 SummaryUtilization of mevalonic acid as determined by incorporation of the 2-C14-labeled compound into non-saponifiable material or into cholesterol or by disappearance of microbiological activity attributable to mevalonic acid in rat liver homogenates was found to be abolished by a preliminary digestion with ribonuclease.

Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2015 Incorporation of the following lipid precursors: DL-mevalonic acid-2 3H, 3H palmitic acid and acetic acid-3H sodium salt, into the anther cells of Muscari comosum (L.) Mili. has been investigated.

Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1961 SummarySynthetic isovalthine (S-(isopropyl-carboxymethyl)-cysteine) was added to urine from hypercholesterolemic patients that had received mevalonic acid-2-C14 intravenously. Isovalthine recovered from the urine was found to be devoid of radioactivity thus indicating that either (a) mevalonic acid is not a precursor of isovalthine, or (b) mevalonic ...
