Total sterol excretion in G5G8^−/− mice. Mice were individually housed for 7 days prior to the experiment. Feces were collected from 12- to 14-week-old male mice (n = 5/group) for 3 days while they consumed a chow diet. Sterols were processed and measured as described in the Materials and Methods. The experiment was repeated three times, and the results were similar. Values are means ± SEMs.
