Considering that at steady state of the exogenous/natural isotopomer ratio the plasma appearance of the two regulatory hydroxysterols are related to the rate of bile acid synthesis via the “classical” and the “alternative” pathways, respectively, the proposed method could be used to evaluate the immediate effects of different diets and drugs and other determinants on cholesterol catabolism.
