A stylized biomedical illustration depicts a lipid-laden macrophage with a rounded cytoplasm containing multiple intracellular lipid droplets. In biological hierarchy, this immune cell resides within the arterial intima, a tissue layer of the blood vessel wall in the cardiovascular system. In pathology and histology, it forms after uptake of LDL (low-density lipoprotein), particularly oxLDL (oxidized LDL), and contributes to atherogenesis by creating fatty streaks and promoting local inflammation. The entity shown is a cell type within vascular tissue.
