Low Density Lipoprotein Clearance (LDL Clearance)
- Target
- LDL Clearance
- Molecular classification
- Pathway, Metabolic Process
01
Overview
Low density lipoprotein (LDL) clearance refers to the physiological process by which LDL particles, which transport cholesterol in the blood, are removed from circulation. This process is crucial for maintaining cholesterol homeostasis and preventing atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease.
02
Mechanism of action
Enhance clearance capacity and lower plasma levels of harmful cholesterol fractions.
03
Biological functions
Cholesterol homeostasisLipid metabolismEndocytosisReceptor recyclingIntracellular cholesterol delivery
04
Disease associations
