LDLs can diffuse freely through the endothelial barrier of blood
vessels and enter the subendothelial space?
,BSNC 1000 (Module 8-10) Final Exam
Questions & Answers (Grade A+)
a. True
b. False -
correct answer ✅b. False
LDLs:
- Cross the endothelial barrier through receptor-mediated
transcytosis
- may also cross the endothelial barrier if paracellular gaps are
sufficiently wide
- e.g. Increased permeability during an inflammatory response
a. True
b. False -
correct answer ✅a. True
Pathogenesis of atherosclerosis? -
correct answer ✅1. An injury to the endothelium of vascular
intima triggers the inflammatory process--- cause vasodilation and
increased permeability
2. Increased permeability allows infiltration of immune cells such as
macrophages and circulating LDLs: become modified by oxidation
and oxidized LDLs trigger macrophage phagocytosis

3. Fat-Ladened macrophages (Foam cells) secrete inflammatory
mediators and growth factors:
- Inflammatory mediators recruit more immune cells to the injured
site
- Growth factors increase division and migration of smooth muscle
cells
4. - Smooth muscle cells produce collagen fibers that form the
fibrous cap
- macrophages, foam cells, necrotic tissue with released cholesterol
form the lipid rich necrotic core.
