Multiple Roles for Plant Sterols
1987In certain ways all sterols are the same, yet in other respects they are quite different. To some extent we understand the reason for the similarities in that sterols must “fit” into the phospholipid leaflet which comprises the monolayer component of the common bilayer arrangement of natural membranes1.

Monograph. Plant sterols and sterolins.
Alternative medicine review : a journal of clinical therapeutic, 2001Sterols and sterolins, also known as phytosterols, are fats present in all plants, including fruits and vegetables. Although they are chemically similar to the animal fat, cholesterol, they have been shown to exert significant unique biochemical effects in both animals and humans. Because they are bound to the fibers of the plant, they are difficult to

Plants also have sterols in their cell membranes, very similar to cholesterol but with one or two extra carbons on the side chain. Those phytosterols (e.g., sitosterol, campesterol) are not absorbed by humans. Pollack in 1953 showed that sitosterol lowers serum cholesterol.
