One pathway that appears to relate elevated cholesterol levels to atherosclerosis involves the oxidation of LDL. Which of the following are consequences of this process?
a. Though the mechanism by which this occurs is not completely understood, this oxidation includes the peroxidation of fatty acids, the hydroxylation of cholesterol, and the oxidation of amino acids.
b. The presence of scavenger receptors on macrophages allows unlimited cholesterol uptake, leading to its conversion to foam cells.
c. Oxidized LDL products induce an immune response that includes recruitment of monocytes and T lymphocytes.
d. All of the listed responses are consequences of this process.
