Apolipoprotein B is the main protein component of LDL (Low Density Lipoprotein). Apolipoprotein B is necessary for the reaction with LDL receptors in the liver and on cell walls and is thus involved in transporting cholesterol from the liver to the vessel cells. Elevated levels of Apolipoprotein B are frequently found in atherosclerotic vascular changes and are a risk factor for atherosclerosis.
