Abstract

Physiological doses of insulin and glucagon in the range of 0.5–2.5 m unit and 0.05‐2 μg respectively per 100 g body weight stimulate first and inhibit afterwards the cholesterol synthesis from labeled acetate in rat liver in vivo. It could be shown that these effects are not caused by a regulating influence of the HMG‐coenzyme A reductase.
