4.1 Disorders of Blood Vessels
After removal of triglycerides by lipoprotein lipase (LPL), what does the chylomicron
become? - correct answer-A smaller chylomicron known as chylomicron remnant
After removal of triglycerides from the VLDL, what does it become? - correct
answer-intermediate density lipoprotein (IDL)
atherosclerosis - correct answer-thickening and stiffening of artery walls bc of the
accumulation of plaque
Blood flows into the coronary arteries during - correct answer-diastole
CETP - correct answer--cholesteryl ester transfer protein
-allows triglycerides and cholesterol to be swapped between VLDL and HDL. the
VLDL can then recycle cholesterol
Do chylomicrons enter the capillaries that are around the enterocytes? - correct
answer-No, they are too large. They enter the lymphatic system through lacteals
During which pregnancies does preeclampsia and eclampsia most often occur in? -
correct answer-first pregnancies and subsequent pregnancies of women with
diabetes, multiple fetuses, collagen vascular disease, or underlying kidney disease
eclampsia - correct answer-seizures in a woman with preeclampsia
, elevated diastolic BP causes what? - correct answer-force on endothelial cells that
progresses atherosclerosis
emulsification - correct answer-Breakdown of large fat globules into smaller,
digestible particles.
endocytosis - correct answer-process by which a cell takes material into the cell by
infolding of the cell membrane
endothelial cells - correct answer-cells lining the blood vessels
Familial hypercholesterolemia - correct answer-a defect in the LDL receptor (APO
B100 receptor)
LDL is very high
Fibrous atheromatous plaque - correct answer--second stage of atherosclerosis
-a more progressed lesion with lipids, smooth muscles cells, scar tissue, foam cells,
calcification, and is covered with endothelial cells
How can a decreased blood flow to the kidneys lead to ^BP (renovascular
hypertension)? - correct answer-Kidneys will sense the low blood flow and believe
the body is dehydrated. Will increase sodium and water retention.
