Hi, Sven, I was about to close the question, when I fould out that "low-density lipoproteids" term also exists in English. I am not a biologist but it seems to be synonymic with "low-density lipoproteins", and the abbreviation LDL is used for both of them.

Answer: Yes, and a googling on \"LDL\" (\"Low Density Lipoproteins\") will confirm.
