More Details
Cholesterol is a sterol and lipid present in cell membranes and transported in the blood of all animals. It is used to form cell membranes and hormones and plays an important role in cell signaling processes. The cellular regulation of cholesterol levels is a complex system in which irregularities are associated with obesity and heart disease.
