32
Q

ROS that can fragment DNA

A

Peroxynitrite (ONOO-)

33
Q

Peroxynitrite is formed by the formation of:

A

Superoxide

Nitric oxide

34
Q

Lipoprotein that carries dietary and endogenous lipids

A

VLDL

35
Q

VLDL is made in the ________ and carries mostly ________

A

Liver

Triglycerides

36
Q

Found on VLDL to activate lipoprotein lipase

A

ApoC-2

37
Q

Lipoprotein made from VLDL

A

LDL

38
Q

LDL contains mostly __________

A

Cholesterol

39
Q

LDL receptor ligand on LDL

A

ApoB-100

40
Q

Lipoprotein that carries only dietary lipids

A

Chylomicrons

41
Q

Chylomicrons carry mostly ________ and activate lipoprotein ligase via ______

A

Triglycerides

ApoC-2

42
Q

T/F Chylomicrons are made in the liver

A

FALSE.

They are made in the small intestine and transport TG to the liver

43
Q

Lipoprotein that carries mostly protein

A

HDL

44
Q

HDL is made in the:

A

Liver and small intestine

45
Q

LDL receptor ligand found on HDL

A

ApoE

46
Q

Found on HDL. Used to activate an enzyme to pick up free cholesterol

A

ApoA-1

47
Q

Enzyme activated by HDL to pick up free cholesterol

A

LCAT

48
Q

T/F Activation of LCAT will cause HDL to pick up cholesterol esters

A

FALSE.

LCAT will only pick up FREE cholesterol when activated. Cholesterol esters are not free, so they will not be picked up
