“…Specific sterols have evolved in different evolutionary time points, and the entire sterol pathway shares close relationship with vertebrate evolution 48 . Specifically, different levels of cholesterol are known to alter several properties of biological lipid membranes, such as fluidity, rigidity, lipid-packing, phase-shift, freezing behaviour, mechanical stiffness, etc 49 , 50 . Notably, most of these properties are also temperature-dependent and slight changes in temperature can induce major changes in these properties.…”

“…Therefore, in case of no or less enzyme activity, the concentration of cholesterol is expected to be high in the inner membrane than outer membrane, especially when the cell is capable of synthesizing cholesterol. Cholesterol also represents a vertebrate-specific biomolecule as cholesterol biosynthesis pathway is established in vertebrate only 48 , 49 . So far there are several reports which strongly suggest that cholesterol content is critical for the function of many transmembrane proteins 80 , 81 .…”

“…The major cholesterol-bearing serum lipoprotein in rats is HDL and the observed decrease in serum cholesterol by CPIB may be directly related to a reduction in the cholesterol concentration of HDL (32,33). Thus, the diminution of serum cholesterol found in CPIB-treated rats was further investigated and the results on HDL-cholesterol levels are presented in Figure 6D.…”

“…A natureza geral do perfil de lipoproteína de répteis, (isto é, concentrações relativamente elevadas de LDL e HDL nos répteis, predominando LDL), foi confirmada em outros estudos em que procedimentos menos precisos têm sido empregados para a quantificação, como eletroforese em gel de agarose ou outros meios (Alexander & Day, 1973;Dangerfield et al, 1976).…”
