Biosynthesis of bufadienolides in toads. V. the origin of the cholesterol used by toad parotoid glands for biosynthesis of bufadienolides

Sodium (1- 14 C) acetate and (5- 3 H) mevalonate were incubated with Bufo vienarum toad parotoid gland and liver tissues. Both labelled compounds were incorporated into cholesterol produced by liver while the incubations with parotoid gland produced no labelled cholesterol. Low and high density lipo...
