• 50% (J:78963)
• 40% (J:100491)
• in female but not male mice
• plasma sitosterol levels are decreased 64% and 79% in males and females, respectively, compared to in wild-type mice (J:78963)
• plasma levels of plant sterol and campesterol are reduced compared to in wild-type mice (J:78963)
• however, the plasma levels of lathosterol are normal (J:78963)
• plasma sitosterol and campesterol levels are decreased compared to in wild-type mice (J:100491)
• cholesterol synthesis is increased 3-fold in the female duodenum, decreased in male jejunum and ileum, and decreased in the female ileum compared to in wild-type mice
• however, fatty acid synthesis is normal
• in fasting female mice
• bile cholesterol levels are increased 5-fold in male mice and 7-fold in female mice compared to in wild-type mice

liver/biliary system
• bile cholesterol levels are increased 5-fold in male mice and 7-fold in female mice compared to in wild-type mice (J:78963)
