.
They serve to transport lipids from tissue to tissue and participate in lipid metabolism.
The inside of the particles has varying amounts of neutral lipids, cholesterol esters, and triacylglycerols.
There are 5 major classes that have specific physiological and anatomical significance. The classes are chylomicrons, VLDL, IDL, LDL, and HDL.
All of the above are true concerning lipoproteins.

Transport of LDLs from the arterial lumen into endothelial cells and into the space that underlies the arterial epithelium.

Attract monocytes from the cirulation in the sub-endothelial space, after which the monocytes undergo conversion to macrophages.
Inhibit macrophage mobility, thereby keeping macrophages at the site of atherogenesis which generates free radicals to further oxidize the attached LDLs.
Undergo uptake by macrophages.
Are cytotoxic and hence can damage the endothelium directly.
All of the above are correct.
