Summary

This document is a study guide on dyslipidemia. It provides a list of questions and answers related to different components of the disease, including enzymes, apolipoproteins, lipoprotein lipase, and cholesterol. This will be useful for students studying biology or biochemistry.

## A Diet High in Me Can Lead to Dyslipidemia - I am an intracellular vesicle containing enzymes that process **cholesterol or saturated fat**. - I am an apolipoprotein that wraps around HDL and stabilizes it. **apoA1** - I am the system into which chylomicrons are released directly: **lymph duct/...

## A Diet High in Me Can Lead to Dyslipidemia - I am an intracellular vesicle containing enzymes that process **cholesterol or saturated fat**. - I am an apolipoprotein that wraps around HDL and stabilizes it. **apoA1** - I am the system into which chylomicrons are released directly: **lymph duct/lymphatic system** - I am the process in which IDL particles are removed from the blood: **apoE-mediated receptor endocytosis** - I metabolize triglycerides **lipoprotein lipase or hepatic lipase** - I am a direct result of VLDL metabolism **IDL** - I am the apolipoprotein that inhibits lipoprotein lipase **apoCIII** - I am the reason bile acids have a low pKa: **weak acid conjugated to cholesterol** - I am the part of the gastrointestinal tract where bile is secreted: **duodenum** - I am formed from HMG-CoA as a result of HMG-CoA reductase: **mevalonate or mevalonic acid** - I am a disease that can lead to secondary dyslipidemia: **diabetes or hypothyroidism or obesity** - Besides in lipoproteins, I am the manner in which fatty acids are transported: **complexed with albumin** - I am the process in which LDL particles removed from the blood: **apoB-mediated receptor endocytosis** - I am a direct result of IDL metabolism: **LDL** - I am the intestinal cell that absorbs monoacylglycerol: **enterocyte** - I am a lipoprotein that is synthesized by intestinal cells: **chylomicrons** - I scavenge cholesterol from cell membranes: **HDL** - I am the site where bile acids are briefly stored until a person needs them: **gallbladder** - I am the protein that transfers cholesteryl esters from HDL to VLDL: **CETP** - I am the apolipoprotein that activates lipoprotein lipase: **ApoCII** - I am both of the lipoproteins that bind to apoB: **LDL and VLDL**
