Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of the directed movement of cholesterol into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of the directed movement of sterols into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the directed movement of cholesterol into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of a cellular process, any of those that are carried out at the cellular level, but are not necessarily restricted to a single cell. For example, cell communication occurs among more than one cell, but occurs at the cellular level. The directed movement of cholesterol, cholest-5-en-3-beta-ol, into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. The directed movement of a sterol into a cell or organelle. Sterols are steroids with one or more hydroxyl groups and a hydrocarbon side-chain in the molecule. The process whereby a solute is transported from one side of a membrane to the other. This process includes the actual movement of the solute, and any regulation and preparatory steps, such as reduction of the solute. The directed movement of cholesterol into a cell or organelle. Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of the directed movement of a solute from one side of a membrane to the other. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the directed movement of a solute from one side of a membrane to the other. Any process that modulates the rate, frequency or extent of cholesterol import. Cholesterol import is the directed movement of cholesterol into a cell or organelle. Any process that decreases the rate, frequency or extent of cholesterol import. Cholesterol import is the directed movement of cholesterol into a cell or organelle. Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of the directed movement of substances (such as macromolecules, small molecules, ions) into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore.
