Amphipathic lipids - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Amphipathic lipids are molecules that are mostly lipid-like (hydrophobic) in structure, but at one end have a region that is polar or ionic (hydrophilic). The hydrophilic region is usually referred t...

An amphipathic substance is one that is polar at one end of the molecule (hydrophilic) and nonpolar (hydrophobic) at the other. Two examples which illustrate this type of lipid are cholesterol, a sterol, and phosphatidyl choline, a glycerophospholipid.
