Abstract

All lipoproteins are made up of three major classes of lipids : triglycerides, cholesterol, and phospholipids. Lipoproteins vary in their relative content of these lipids as well as in size and protein content. Human low density lipoprotein (LDL) is a main carrier for cholesterol in the blood stream, and it is well established that cholesterol deposits in the arteries stem primarily from LDL and that increased levels of plasma LDL correlated with in increased risk of atherosclerosis. Various lines of research provide strong evidence that lDL may become oxidized in vivo and that oxidized-LDL is the species involved in the formation of early atherosclerotic lesions. the most crucial findings in this context are the following : (1) Oxidized -LDL has chemotactic properties and if present in the intimal space of the arteries would recruit blood monocytes which then can develop into tissue macrophages ; (2) marcrophages take up oxidized-LDL unregulated to from lipid laden foam cells ; (3) Oxdized-LDLis highly cytotoxic and could be responsible for damage of the endothelial layer and for the destruction of smooth muscle cells.

최근 지방 섭추의 증가에 따른 혈관계 질병이 증가 추세에 있다. 이러한 동맥경화 및 고지질의 질병은 지질 단백질(lipoprotein)과 관련하여, LDL 및 산화 LDL의 특성을 중심으로 고찰하였다. 인체의 혈장에 함유된 LDL 함량의 증가는, 동맥경화와 직결되는 것을 의미하며, 이러한 LDL은 매우 hydrophobic한 특성을 가진 550Kd의 단일 polypeptide인 Apo B-100라는 단백질이, 지질성분인 triglyceide, phospholipid 및 cholesterol와 결합되어 있다. 최근 이러한 LDL은 산화(oxidation)되는 경우, 정상적인 LDL-receptor pathway를 따르지 않고, macrophang와 결합하므로서, foarn cell을 형성하여 동백경화가 촉진되는 것으로 알려지고 있다.
