Cholesterol is a major sterol in mammals, accounting for 20-25% of the structural components of the plasma membrane, and plays an important role in characterizing membrane fluidity and permeability, as well as the function of transporter and signaling proteins. In addition, Cholesterol is an endogenous estrogen-related receptor alpha (ERRα) agonist.
