Preferred Label : lipoproteins, ldl;
MeSH definition : A class of lipoproteins of small size (18-25 nm) and light (1.019-1.063 g/ml) particles
with a core composed mainly of CHOLESTEROL ESTERS and smaller amounts of TRIGLYCERIDES.
The surface monolayer consists mostly of PHOSPHOLIPIDS, a single copy of APOLIPOPROTEIN
B-100, and free cholesterol molecules. The main LDL function is to transport cholesterol
and cholesterol esters to extrahepatic tissues.;
