The directed movement of lipids into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. Lipids are compounds soluble in an organic solvent but not, or sparingly, in an aqueous solvent. The directed movement of sterols into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. Sterols are steroids with one or more hydroxyl groups and a hydrocarbon side-chain in the molecule. Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of the directed movement of sterols within cells. The directed movement of substances within a cell. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the directed movement of sterols within cells. The directed movement of lipids within cells. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of the directed movement of sterols within cells. The directed movement of cholesterol, cholest-5-en-3-beta-ol, within cells. The directed movement of sterols within cells.
