Description

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].

In Vitro

In solution of 1mM water-soluble cholesterol, the amplitude of K currents in isolated IHCs is reversely changed[2].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
