The total cholesterol content of normal hamster embryo fibroblasts and polyoma virus-transformed hamster embryo fibroblasts were found to be similar.

This difference is due in part to an increase in cholesterol esterification and a decrease in the hydrolysis of cholesterol esters in the transformed cell.
