The initial stage of atherosclerosis is characterized by accumulation beneath the endothelium of excessive amounts of ​LDL.

  • The build-up of lipids and fibrous components in the major arteries is a hallmark of the degenerative illness known as atherosclerosis. A picture of a typical artery's anatomy can be found in Foam cells, or subendothelial accumulations of cholesterol-engorged macrophages, are the earliest lesions of atherosclerosis.
  • Nitric oxide and prostacyclin are two chemicals that are produced by your endothelium. These maintain the fluid in your blood and stop it from clotting when it shouldn't. These compounds' insufficient production is a symptom of various diseases, which raises your risk of clotting.

Paraphin [41]
An igneous rock can be formed from cooled magma. The igneous rock can become sedimentary if it is broken down by wind or water. The sedimentary rock can become metamorphic if it becomes buried in the earth, where pressure and heat would turn it into a metamorphic rock. The metamorphic rock can then become an igneous rock by melting underground and turning into magma, flowing out of a volcano, and cooling.
