LDL can be internalized by both hepatic and non-hepatic tissues. LDL-cholesterol in the liver can be converted to bile acids and secreted into the intestinal lumen. LDL-cholesterol internalized by non-hepatic tissues can be used to produce hormones, synthesize cell membranes, or stored in esterified form.
Appropriate exercise, under the guidance of the doctor to take the relevant drugs to regulate lipids, such as statins are commonly used in the clinic is a class of drugs that can inhibit, block the production of cholesterol in the liver, thereby reducing the blood cholesterol and LDL content. However, it should be noted that statin drugs have the risk of liver damage and regular liver function tests are required.
Warm reminder: If dyslipidemia occurs, it is recommended to consult a cardiologist and not to apply statin drugs without authorization.
