a) LPL catalyzes the hydrolysis of triglycerides to release free fatty acids using the
cofactorapolipoprotein C2 (ApoC2). ---> What is the main function of lipoprotein
lipase (LPL) and which cofactor is essential for this?
a) LPL catalyzes the hydrolysis of triglycerides to release free fatty acids using the
cofactorapolipoprotein C2 (ApoC2).
b) LPL catalyzes the hydrolysis of triglycerides to release free fatty acids using the
cofactorapolipoprotein E (ApoE).
c) LPL transports triglycerides from the gut to the blood using the cofactor
apolipoprotein C2 (ApoC2).

b) Foam cells in the atherosclerotic plaque are macrophages filled with oxidized
HDL. ---> Which statement is not true regarding the development of an
atherosclerotic plaque?
a) Rupture of a fibrous plaque leads to the formation of a thrombus that can occlude
the bloodvessel.

, Capillaries. ---> Which blood vessels are most relevant for vascular permeability
and edema?
c) limiting permeability and inflammation. ---> An intact glycocalyx is important for:
a) promoting angiogenesis and cell migration.

acetylcholine. ---> An obese man is referred to the cardiologist with signs and
symptoms of myocardial ischemia. Howcould endothelial function be evaluated in
this man?
a) By making an angiogram of the major coronary arteries, filling them with a
contrast fluid.
b) By measuring blood flow during intracoronary infusion of adenosine.
c) By measuring the vascular resistance during intracoronary infusion of
acetylcholine.
d) By determining the pulse wave velocity using the SphygmoCor device.
d) the SphygmoCor system. ---> he manufacturer of the new drug against type 2
