It is interesting to note that the cholesterol in LDL cholesterol and the cholesterol in HDL cholesterol are identical. The only difference between the two is the carrier molecule (i.e. the lipoprotein).

A large part of this mechanism was clarified by Dr Michael S. Brown and Dr Joseph L. Goldstein, who received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for their work in 1985.

According to Framingham Heart Study, people with an age greter than 50 years have no increased overall mortality with either high or low serum cholesterol levels. There is, however, a correlation between falling cholesterol levels over the first 14 years and mortality over the following 18 years (11% overall and 14% CVD death rate increase per 1 mg/dL per year drop in cholesterol levels).
