短释义
Cholesterol is a product of the liver, excreted through bile into the digestive tract. The first notice of cholesterol was in 1769, when a French researcher found it in gallstones. Then, in the early 19th Century the chemical was named “cholestrine,” from the Greek words for bile (chole) and solids (stereos), plus the chemical suffix -ol. Scientists have noted the role of cholesterol in heart attacks and other health problems, a situation that can be regulated through diet or medications.

词源
cholesterol (n.)white, solid substance present in body tissues, 1894, earlier cholesterin, from French cholestrine (Chevreul, 1827), from Latinized form of Greek khole “bile” (from PIE root *ghel- (2) “to shine,” with derivatives denoting “green, yellow,” and thus “bile, gall”) + steros “solid, stiff” (from PIE root *ster- (1) “stiff”). So called because originally found in gallstones (Conradi, 1775). The name was changed to the modern form (with chemical suffix -ol, denoting an alcohol) after the compound was discovered to be a secondary alcohol.Related entries & more

胆固醇(n.)白色,存在于身体组织中的固体物质,1894年,早期的胆固醇,来自法语cholestrine(Chevreul,1827),来自希腊语khole“胆汁”的拉丁化形式(来自PIE根*ghel-(2)“发光” ,”,派生词表示“绿色、黄色”,因此表示“胆汁、胆汁”)+ steros“固体、坚硬”(来自 PIE 根 *ster- (1) “僵硬的”)。如此称呼是因为最初发现于胆结石中(Conradi,1775)。在发现该化合物是仲醇后,该名称更改为现代形式(带有化学后缀 -ol,表示醇)。相关条目及更多
