LDL floats around in the blood stream and is thought to incrementally accumulate on blood vessels in the body, ultimately increasing the risk of heart attacks and strokes. Statins inhibit the intracellular liver enzyme HMG-CoA reductase, which then results in up regulation of LDL receptors on the surface of the liver cell.
