# Low-Density Lipoproteins
|
||||
|
||||
Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) are types of [[lipoproteins]] that plays a crucial role in cholesterol transport within the human body. Often, and somewhat imprecisely, referred to as "bad cholesterol", LDL is a complex of lipids and proteins that carries [[cholesterol]] from the liver to various tissues throughout the body.
|
||||
|
||||
Structurally, LDL particles consist of:
|
||||
|
||||
- A core of cholesterol esters and triglycerides.
|
||||
- An outer layer of phospholipids and unesterified cholesterol.
|
||||
- A single apolipoprotein B-100 molecule.
|
||||
|
||||
LDL particles are formed in the bloodstream as very-low-density lipoproteins (VLDL) lose triglycerides through the action of lipoprotein lipase. As this process continues, VLDL particles become increasingly dense, eventually forming LDL.
|
||||
|
||||
However, elevated levels of LDL in the bloodstream are associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, particularly [[atherosclerosis]]. This is because excess LDL can penetrate the arterial wall and become [[oxidized low-density lipoproteins]], triggering [[inflammation]] that leads to plaque formation.
