Effect of p-chlorophenoxyisobutyrate (CPIB) fed to rats on hepatic biosynthesis and catabolism of ubiquinone

The effect of p-chlorophenoxyisobutyrate (CPIB) feeding on cholesterol and ubiquinone metabolism in rats was investigated. The results obtained from acetate-l-14C and mevalonate-2-14C incorporation studies both in vivo and in vitro confirm the results of other workers that CPIB feeding caused a meta...
