# oxLDL
Oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL) are forms of [[low-density lipoproteins]] that have undergone oxidative modification. These particles contribute to the development of [[atherosclerosis]] by promoting inflammation and the formation of plaque in the [[subendothelial space]]. OxLDL is more readily taken up by macrophages, leading to the formation of foam cells and fatty streaks, which are early signs of atherosclerosis.
