Session Date
Lesson Topic
triglycerides, cholesterol, statins
Lesson Outline
review basic chemistry of organic acids, saturated and unsaturated, and fatty acids
diagram glycerol and how it combines with fatty acids to form triglycerides.
relate triglycerides, specific proteins and cholesterol to lipoproteins.
discuss the difference in lipoproteins and how each functions in the transport of cholesterol
discuss how cholesterol is required by the body, its functions
using a diagram, outline the synthesis of cholesterol by the liver, the 19 steps, concentrating on the rate limiting step involving Hmg-Coa reductase inhibitors(statins)

Lesson Comments
Some basic chemistry review needed before beginning. This helped in the understanding of terms like saturated and unsaturated, as well as lipoproteins. trevor was active in the class discussion and wanted the review before the newer material.
