Add to ORKGCholesterol fulfills an essential role in mammalian physiology. It is an important structural component in the cell membrane of all cells in the body. In addition, cholesterol provides the backbone for synthesis of biologically important compounds, like steroid hormones and bile salts. Yet, high plasma cholesterol levels, particularly high LDL-cholesterol levels, are associated with increased risk for cardiovascular diseases (CVD). ... Zie: Summar
