Hepatocellular Carcinoma (Hepatoma) 05/01/1977 - "Previously, we reported that the properties or microsomal 4-methyl sterol demethylase isolated from liver and Morris hepatomas 5123C and 7777 are grossly similar. " 02/01/1976 - "Thus, the enzymes of the microsomal-bound 4-methyl sterol demethylase of cholesterol biosynthesis appear to be very similar in liver and these 2 Morris hepatomas. "
