  • LDL has been associated with the progression of atherosclerosis and blockage of the artery lumen, because it can carry cholesterol into smaller vessels. But LDL is also essential for carrying lipids that keep the human body alive, including in those small vessels.

Low-density lipoprotein         
Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) is one of the five major groups of lipoprotein that transport all fat molecules around the body in extracellular water. These groups, from least dense to most dense, are chylomicrons (aka ULDL by the overall density naming convention), very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL), intermediate-density lipoprotein (IDL), low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and high-density lipoprotein (HDL).

Low-density lipoprotein

Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) is one of the five major groups of lipoprotein that transport all fat molecules around the body in extracellular water. These groups, from least dense to most dense, are chylomicrons (aka ULDL by the overall density naming convention), very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL), intermediate-density lipoprotein (IDL), low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and high-density lipoprotein (HDL). LDL delivers fat molecules to cells. LDL is involved in atherosclerosis, a process in which it is oxidized within the walls of arteries.

Examples of use of LDL
1. Interestingly, the "bad" LDL lipoproteins are involved in the relay.
2. Also chocolate lovers had lower levels of the bad cholesterol, LDL.
3. LDL – so–called ‘bad‘ cholesterol – and high–density lipoprotein (HDL), or ‘good‘ cholesterol.
4. "The more you lower LDL cholesterol, the more you lower the risk.
5. Guidelines recommend getting total cholesterol below 5mmols per litre and bad cholesterol, or LDL, below 3mmols.
