FIG. 3.

Structure-activity studies on the effect of individual BACs on the cholesterol biosynthesis. The Neuro2a cells were exposed to individual BACs at 100 nM in lipid-free medium for 48 hrs and the levels of cholesterol and its precursors were analyzed by GC-MS as described in the Materials and Methods. *P  <  .05; **P < .005; ***P < .0005; n  =  3; all statistical analyses are relative to Control using Student’s t-test.
