Reduction and esterification of cholesterol and sitosterol by homogenates of feces
Mixtures of cholesterol-1,2-3H and sitosterol-4-14C have been incubated with suspensions of feces in order to compare the behavior of the phytosterol with transformations known to take place with cholesterol under these conditions. Within the limitations

Conversion of cholesterol injected into man to cholestanol via a 3-ketonic intermediate
Cholesterol-3-3H,4-14C was injected intravenously in man and its transformation to cholestanol was studied. From the 3H:14C ratios in cholestanol isolated from blood, evidence for the participation of a ketonic intermediate in the conversion was obtained.

Esterification of injected epicoprostanol in a human subject
That a necessary requirement for in vivo esterification of 3-hydroxy sterols is the equatorial conformation of the hydroxyl group has been substantiated by the administration of epicoprostanol-3β-3H (3-OH equatorial) to a man with a complete biliary ...
