    Thanks Andrew. I've just been diagnosed with stable angina and scheduled for a triple bypass, and the topic has suddenly become fascinating. Thanks for explaining it clearly for laymen. Now, not only do I now have more of an understanding of atherosclerosis, I can now have a more informative and intelligent discussion with the cardiologist.

    I watched this video a year and a half ago, and really appreciated it's depth. It explains the process of atherosclerosis better than any other site I have found. But for the past year, I have not been able to find this video to re-watch and it has been driving me crazy (I couldn't remember my original search terms). I'm so happy to have finally found it again. I will definitely be watching more of his lessons going forward. Thank you, Dr. Wolf

    Andrew Wolf you did not talk about the process of CALCIFICATION, when the fibrous cap becomes stiffer and more brittle and more prone to rupture. The calcification process also affects blood pressure behavior due to the lesser elasticity of the arterial volume...

    +Joe Kensei As far as I know, hyperlipidaemia contributes to driving the LDL into the intimal layer. LDL is retained via association of ApoB-100 with negatively-charged proteoglycan residues in the ECM.

    thanks alot doctor ***** ... but i have one question after the fibrous plaque formation ...from where does the LDLs come from ?? i mean Macrophages will engulf the LDLs and will grow to some distance ...then how does it keep growing ?? ....or is that the LDL enter in a very large quantity that it takes alot of time to be engulfed by macrophages ?? please anyone answer :D

    I believe that the LDL is recruited by the endothelial cells, since LDL contains cholesterol and other molecules that the cells need - after all, the reason that LDL is circulating is to bring nutrients to the cells. Therefore if you have a high level of LDL in the blood over an extended period of time, more of it is recruited and also more of it can be oxidized (this isn't mentioned in the video but oxidation of LDL is pretty bad and can increase inflammation because the immune system recognizes the OxLDL (it can even produce antibodies against it)). Therefore the oxidation of LDL only increases the rate of development of atherosclerosis, since it increases inflammation. Even though the fibrous plaque covers the developing core, the endothelial cells below it still the LDL contents. I'm not a doctor (just a student) so take this with a grain of salt, but I hope that it helps.

    @@HealthEdSolutions 5 years later and i still don't know how diabetes destroys the endothelial layer. Perhaps I will know in another 5 years.
