Cholestanes

Cholestane

Cholestane is a saturated tetracyclic triterpene. Cholestene and Cholestane are Cholestanes.

Cholesterol

Cholesterol is the principal sterol of all higher animals, distributed in body tissues, especially the brain and spinal cord, and in animal fats and oils. Cholestene and Cholesterol are Cholestanes.

Double bond

In chemistry, a double bond is a covalent bond between two atoms involving four bonding electrons as opposed to two in a single bond.

See Cholestene and Double bond

Fusidic acid, sold under the brand name Fucidin among others, is a steroid antibiotic that is often used topically in creams or ointments and eyedrops but may also be given systemically as tablets or injections.

See Cholestene and Fusidic acid

Lanosterol

Lanosterol is a tetracyclic triterpenoid and is the compound from which all animal and fungal steroids are derived.

See Cholestene and Lanosterol

Lanthanide

The lanthanide or lanthanoid series of chemical elements comprises at least the 14 metallic chemical elements with atomic numbers 57–70, from lanthanum through ytterbium.

See Cholestene and Lanthanide

Lipid bilayer

The lipid bilayer (or phospholipid bilayer) is a thin polar membrane made of two layers of lipid molecules.

See Cholestene and Lipid bilayer

Liver disease

Liver disease, or hepatic disease, is any of many diseases of the liver.

See Cholestene and Liver disease

Lovastatin

Lovastatin, sold under the brand name Mevacor among others, is a statin medication, to treat high blood cholesterol and reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease.

See Cholestene and Lovastatin

Magnetic susceptibility

In electromagnetism, the magnetic susceptibility (denoted, chi) is a measure of how much a material will become magnetized in an applied magnetic field.

See Cholestene and Magnetic susceptibility

Red yeast rice

Red yeast rice, red rice koji (lit. 'red koji'), red fermented rice, red kojic rice, red koji rice, anka, or angkak, is a bright reddish purple fermented rice, which acquires its color from being cultivated with the mold Monascus purpureus.

See Cholestene and Red yeast rice

Stigmasterol

Stigmasterol – a plant sterol (phytosterol) – is among the most abundant of plant sterols, having a major function to maintain the structure and physiology of cell membranes.
