Low-density lipoprotein - Wikipedia. LDL has been associated with the progression of atherosclerosis and blockage of the artery lumen, because it can carry cholesterol into smaller vessels. But LDL is also essential for carrying lipids that keep the human body alive, including in those small vessels.

30 Ιαν 2019 · LDL cholesterol is an important contributor to the risk of coronary heart disease, and its measurement is central to evaluating the effects of lipid-modifying therapies.
29 Απρ 2021 · LDL cholesterol is low-density lipoprotein, and if levels are too high, a person could be at risk of cardiovascular disease. Learn more about LDL cholesterol and how to reduce it.
8 Αυγ 2023 · LDL cholesterol, or low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, is a fat that circulates in the blood, moving cholesterol around the body to where it is needed for cell repair and depositing it inside of artery walls.
9 Ιαν 2024 · Low density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol is sometimes referred to as “bad” cholesterol because it can build up and lead to coronary artery disease.
17 Απρ 2023 · LDL is the predominant carrier of serum cholesterol (around 67%) and delivers it to tissues of need such as the adrenal glands, gonads, and other tissues. With a density of 1.019 to 1.063 g/ml, LDL contains 20% protein and 50% cholesterol (CE and FC) and displays beta mobility on electrophoresis.
8 Αυγ 2023 · LDLs are commonly referred to as the "bad" lipoproteins as they carry a very high concentration of cholesterol. When LDL levels are pathologically high, LDL deposits in the arterial wall and oxidize. Macrophages engulf these oxidized LDL particles, leading to their transformation that appears like foam, hence the name "foam" cells.
