Cholestenes are derivatives of cholestanes which have a double bond. One of the most significant cholestenes is cholecalciferol. If there are two double bonds, the molecule is known as a "cholestadienes". Examples include fusidic acid, lanosterol, and stigmasterol.--Wikipedia. Cholestenes are derivatives of cholestanes which have a double bond. One of the most significant cholestenes is cholecalciferol.

5beta-cholestane, also known as coprostane or pseudocholestane, is a member of the class of compounds known as cholestane steroids. Cholestane steroids are steroids with a structure containing the 27-carbon cholestane skeleton. Thus, 5beta-cholestane is considered to be a sterol lipid molecule. 5beta-cholestane can be found in rice, which makes 5beta-cholestane a potential biomarker for the consumption of this food product.
