Cholesteryl propionate is a cholesterol-based molecule that has been extensively utilized in scientific research for several decades. Its connection to cholesterol enables investigations into the structure and function of cell membranes. The versatile nature of cholesteryl propionate finds application in a wide range of scientific research endeavors. Researchers have employed this compound to examine cholesterol and the formation of lipoproteins like HDL and LDL. Notably, cholesteryl propionate acts as an agonist for the nuclear receptor PPAR-alpha, stimulating its activation when present. Its utilization has significantly contributed to the understanding of cell membrane structure by acting as an agonist for the nuclear receptor PPAR-alpha.
