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.
