Cholesterol and Linoleic Acid: a forgotten cooperation? Cholesterol: is still a negative myth?
Main Article Content
Keywords
Linoleic acid, Cholesterol
Abstract
This mini review proposes a reflection on the role of cholesterol in its cooperation with oxygen and
linoleic acid. The authors deal with the logics of membrane mobility, where the concentrations of cholesterol
and linoleic acid exert a strong influence on the dynamics of the greater or lesser entry of oxygen and, therefore,
on the impact in the determinism of oxidative phenomena.
