  1. 6. This disease sate can result from the accumulation of lipids in the artery walls that can develop plaques.
  2. 7. This lipid particle is the LEAST dense: VLDL, IDL, LDL or HDL.
  3. 8. This lipoprotein particle can cross and deliver lipids to the artery walls.
  4. 10. This disease state is the immediate concern for patients with hypertriglyceridemia (TG > 1,000 mg/dL)
  5. 12. This lipoprotein is the key structural feature of VLDL and LDL
  6. 15. This genetic predisposition results in absent or decreased number of the LDL receptor; homozygous familial ___________
Down
  1. 1. This lipoprotein has a primary function in remnant uptake
  2. 2. Resistance to this pancreatic hormone can drive atherogenic dyslipidemia
  3. 3. This lipid-protein particle participates in the reverse cholesterol transport pathway (the good cholesterol)
  4. 4. Macrophages ingest lipids in the artery walls and become _____ cells
  5. 5. This lipoprotein is an LDL-like particle that can add atherogenic and thrombotic risk (do not use parenthesis)
  6. 9. These molecules transport lipids through the circulatory system
  7. 11. This transporter brings cholesterol from the diet into the intestinal cells
  8. 13. ASCVD risk reflects ____ the concentration of atherogenic particles and the duration of exposure
  9. 14. In the endogenous pathway, this receptor at the liver clears circulating apoB-100 particles
