BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITY
The biological role of dolichol (review)(Ref. 0043). Extraction of microsomes with n-heptane and subsequent reincorporation of dolichol were done in order to investigate the influence of dolichol on microsomal membrane functions. Dolichol affected microsomal membrane fluidity, but did not modify the activities of certain microsome membrane enzymes(Ref. 0062). HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors induce apoptosis in mouse proximal tubular cells in primary culture. Geranylgeranylpyrophosphate and mevalonate completely reversed the effect of the inhibitors, while farnesylpyrophosphate partially reversed it and dolichol had no effect(Ref. 0064).

SOURCE
Human tissues (testes, adrenal, liver, thyroid, pancreas, prostate, heart, kidney, spleen, lung)(Ref. 0054). Human tissues (liver, testis, spleen, pituitary)(Ref. 0048). Rat and human tissues (spleen, liver, kidney, myocardium, lung, pancreas, adrenal)(Ref. 0051). The effects of dietary proteins on the accumulation of dolichol in kidney, spleen, brain, and heart were studied. There were increases in dolichol contents in rat tissues with age. The contents of kidney and spleen were influenced by the diet(Ref. 0057). Dolichol content in different regions of the rat brain (cerebral cortex, striatum, hippocampus, cerebellum, and brain stem) were analyzed from birth to the age of 2 years. The level of dolichol increased almost 100-fold during the first 10 months of life and continued to increase thereafter(Ref. 0058).
CHEMICAL SYNTHESIS

METABOLISM
Rat liver hyperplastic nodules(Ref. 0048). Human liver cirrosis and hepatocarcinoma (Ref. 0048). Age-related chnges of dolichyl phosphate content in rat and human tissues (spleen, liver, kidney, heart, lung, pancreas, adrenal)(Ref. 0051). Dolichol contents of various organs of mice used as a model for Niemann-Pick's type C disease (liver, spleen, kidney, brain, testis, lung, adipose tissue, heart, intestine, skeletal muscle). Contents in subfractions isolated from the liver of mice used as a model for NPC (mitocondria, lysosomes, microsomes)(Ref. 0071).
