Coprosterol

Coprosterol is a lipid of Sterol Lipids (ST) class. Coprosterol is associated with abnormalities such as Cerebrovascular accident, Glycogen Storage Disease Type IV, Coronary Arteriosclerosis, CARDIAC EVENT and Diabetes Mellitus, Non-Insulin-Dependent. The involved functions are known as cholesterol absorption, Death, Sudden, Cardiac, Drug Interactions, Cholesterol Homeostasis and Synthesis. Coprosterol often locates in lipid raft, Tissue membrane, Membrane, Blood and Body tissue. The associated genes with Coprosterol are ABO gene, STN gene, Alleles, Apolipoprotein E gene and TNF gene. The related lipids are saturated fat, campesterol, lathosterol, Sterols and Total cholesterol. The related experimental models are Rodent Model.
