Questão
What is an Atheroma?
Responda
  • Artifical thickening of arterial cell walls that excludes a thick lipid mix
  • Artificial coarsening of arterial cell walls that shed bacteria into the bloodstram
  • Bacterial biofilm forming over the cell wall

Questão
What causes the Endothelial Dysfunction that begins atheroma growth?
Responda
  • Cigarette smoke
  • Excess LDL's
  • Bacterial infection
  • Autoimmune disorders
  • Diabetes

Questão 3

Questão
What happens to epithelial cells during Endothelial Dysfunction?
Responda
  • 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

Responda
  • True
  • False

Questão 7

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

Questão 8

Questão
LDLs are so easily reduced due to low tissue antioxidants
Responda
  • True
  • False

Questão 9

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

Questão 10

Questão
As the macrophages die, the release lipid pools
Responda
  • True

Responda
  • True
  • False

Questão 13

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

Questão 14

Questão
Name the effect of arterial plaques
Responda
  • Blood flow decreases
  • Blood pressure rises
  • Blood flow increases
