A
is a disease in the tunica intima( outer membrane of the endothelial and also fibrous fatty region form in large( four place aorta, femoral,coronary and cortoid
2
Q
result of atherosclorisis
A
thickness of the cell wall, decrease in elasticity and reduce in flow rate as well as ischemia
3
Q
the main cause of atherosclerosis
A
hyperlipidemia, cigarette smoking, diabetes,
4
Q
endothelial cell damage results
A
- high permeability of endothelia cell resulting in leaking of proteins and lipids
2.migration of monocytes and leukocytes into sub- endothelial layers
3.monocytes became macrophages and digest the lipid forming foam cells- which are cells filled with lipid - macrophages release growth factors and reactive oxygen species ROS
- continous tissue damage
5
Q
low density lipoprotein
A
oxidized by ROS and be eaten or phagocytized by macrophages. become foam
are bad fat because the accumulate fat or cholesterol around phospholipid.
6
Q
high density lipoproteins
A
good fat, carry cholestrol atound the blood stream and get rid of choloestrpl
