Abstract

Unesterified cholesterol is a major component of plasma membranes. In the brain of the adult it is mostly found in myelin sheaths where it plays a major architectural role. In the newborn mouse little myelination of neurons has occurred and much of this sterol comprises a metabolically active pool....
