Cholesterol Cholesterol is small molecule, one of the steroids . It is essential to life. It has also been responsible for 17 Nobel Prizes, countless pages of reports in scientific journals and the popular press, and mounting anxiety on the part of health-conscious people. Why? The human body contains about 100 g of cholesterol. Most of this is incorporated in the membranes from which cells are constructed and is an indispensable component of them. The insulating layers of myelin wound around neurons are especially rich in cholesterol. In far smaller quantities, but no less important, cholesterol is starting ingredient for the synthesis of the steroid hormones: progesterone estrogens androgens (e.g., testosterone glucocorticoids (e.g., cortisol mineralocorticoids (e.g., aldosterone Cholesterol is also the precursor from which the body synthesizes vitamin D One of the major uses of cholesterol is the synthesis of bile acids . These are synthesized in the liver from cholesterol and are secreted in the bile There is also an unceasing transport of cholesterol in the blood between the liver and all the other tissues. Most of this cholesterol travels complexed with fatty acids and protein in the form of low density lipoproteins LDL s). Cells that need cholesterol trap and ingest LDLs by

Arteriosclerosis is the general term for thickening and hardening of the arteries. This occurs normally as we age. Atherosclerosis is a type of arteriosclerosis, and is characterized by deposits of fatty substances, cholesterol, cellular waste products, calcium, and fibrin in the inner lining of the arteries. This buildup is called plaque. Plaque can partially or totally block the flow of blood through an artery. When plaque occurs two things can happen: hemorrhaging into the plaque and/or formation of a clot or thrombus on the plaque's surface. If either of these occurs and blocks the entire artery, a heart attack or stroke may result. Atherosclerosis is a slow, progressive disease, and if you have been reading research on the subject, you know that the process has been found to begin in children and adolescents. It affects large and medium sized arteries, but the type of artery and the progressive time table appear to vary with the individual.

Atherosclerosis is a type of arteriosclerosis caused by a build-up of plaque in the inner lining of an artery. (Arteriosclerosis is a general term for thickening or hardening of the arteries.) Plaque is made up of deposits of fatty substances, cholesterol, cellular waste products, calcium, and fibrin, and can develop in medium or large arteries. The artery wall becomes thickened and looses its elasticity. Atherosclerosis is a slow, progressive disease that may start as early as childhood. However, the disease has the potential to progress rapidly. What causes atherosclerosis? It is unknown exactly how atherosclerosis begins or what causes it. Some scientists think that certain risk factors may be associated with atherosclerosis, including: elevated cholesterol and triglyceride levels high blood pressure smoking diabetes mellitus (type 1 diabetes) obesity physical inactivity How does the disease progress?

Public release date: 28-Sep-2004 E-mail Article Contact: Richard Merritt Merri006@mc.duke.edu Duke University Medical Center Gene clusters predict atherosclerosis severity, susceptibility DURHAM, N.C. Duke University Medical Center researchers have identified specific clusters of genes within human aortas that appear to predict with great specificity which patients may be at highest risk for developing atherosclerosis, as well as the severity of the disease. For the researchers, this is an important first of many steps toward developing highly individualized approaches to identifying and treating atherosclerosis that are tailored to and informed by a patient's unique genetic make-up. Atherosclerosis is a disorder marked by the thickening and clogging of blood vessels, which over time can deprive the heart of necessary oxygen and nutrients. While factors such as diet, smoking, cholesterol levels and inactivity are important in the development of atherosclerosis, the researchers said that heredity plays a crucial role in how the body responds to these environmental factors. "Instead of trying to find a specific gene that might be implicated in the development atherosclerosis, we took the novel approach of trying identify clusters of genes that may help us better understand the progression of the disease," said Duke cardiologist David Seo, M.D. The results of the Duke research are scheduled to appear in the October 2004 issue of the journal Arteriorsclerosis, Thrombosis and Vascular Biology and are published early on-line at
