Any process that modulates 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. Uptake of cholesterol into the blood by absorption from the small intestine. Any process by which nutrients are taken up from the contents of the intestine. 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 modulates the frequency, rate or extent of a system process, a multicellular organismal process carried out by any of the organs or tissues in an organ system. The whole of the physical, chemical, and biochemical processes carried out by living organisms to break down ingested lipids into components that may be easily absorbed and directed into metabolism. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of a digestive system process, a physical, chemical, or biochemical process carried out by living organisms to break down ingested nutrients into components that may be easily absorbed and directed into metabolism. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of absorption of cholesterol into the blood, and the exclusion of other sterols from absorption. A physical, chemical, or biochemical process carried out by living organisms to break down ingested nutrients into components that may be easily absorbed and directed into metabolism. 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. Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of uptake of cholesterol into the blood by absorption from the intestine. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of uptake of cholesterol into the blood by absorption from the intestine.
