Antworten
  • Cigarette smoke
  • Excess LDL's
  • Bacterial infection
  • Autoimmune disorders
  • Diabetes

Frage 3

Frage
What happens to epithelial cells during Endothelial Dysfunction?
Antworten
  • They become lipoprotein soluble and lose cell repellant quality
  • They become lipoprotein inoluble and gain cell repellant quality
  • They become lipoprotein soluble and gain cell repellant quality

Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 7

Frage
What happens to LDL's once they enter the tissue
Antworten
  • They're oxidied by macrophages
  • They're reduced by macrophages

Frage 8

Frage
LDLs are so easily reduced due to low tissue antioxidants
Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 9

Frage
What happens when Macrophages take up too many LDL's?
Antworten
  • They become dying Foam cells
  • They become dying Plasma cells
  • They become dying Mast cels

Frage 10

Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 11

Frage
Name the two main components of the plaque?

Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 13

Frage
What, potentially can happen to the fibrous plaque coat?
Antworten
  • It calcifies and fissures at the edges
  • It becomes layered with t-cells and macrophages
  • Bacteria stick to it and invade tissues

Frage 14

Frage
Name the effect of arterial plaques
Antworten
  • Blood flow decreases
  • Blood pressure rises
  • Blood flow increases
