Bioactivity | Cholesterol Water Soluble can be used for the research of the effects of cholesterol on the potassium currents in inner hair cells (IHCs). Cholesterol is an integral component of the cell membrane and regulates the activity of ion channels in the lipid bilayer[1][2]. |
Invitro | In solution of 1mM water-soluble cholesterol, the amplitude of K currents in isolated IHCs is reversely changed[2]. |
Name | Cholesterol (Water Soluble) |
