Question

Which category of blood lipids is involved in the formation of atherosclerotic plaques?

Answer 1

Answer:

LDL cholesterol and apolipoprotein B (apoB 100).

Explanation:

In LDL cholesterol structure the main protein present is apolipoprotein B (apoB 100) associated with the occurrence of cardiovascular atherosclerotic plaque. The retention and accumulation of apolipoprotein B (apoB 100) in the artery wall causes the inflammatory process initiation and results in atherosclerotic plaque and endothelial injury and dysfunction.
