In addition to the established association between high lipoprotein (a)[Lp (a)] concentrations
and coronary artery disease, an association between Lp (a) and venous thromboembolism …

Lipoprotein (a)(Lp (a)) is an independent risk factor for future coronary events. Variants
rs10455872 and rs3798220 in the gene encoding Lp (a) are associated with an increased …

Background—Functional copy number variation in the apolipoprotein (a) gene (LPA)
underlies a variable number of protein kringle domains repeated in tandem in the lipoprotein …

Two genetic variants (rs3798220 and rs10455872) in the apolipoprotein (a) gene (LPA)
have been implicated in cardiovascular disease (CVD), presumably through their …

Abstract High lipoprotein (a)[Lp (a)] concentrations are one of the most important genetically
determined risk factors for cardiovascular disease. Lp (a) concentrations are an enigmatic …

Abstract Lipoprotein (a)[Lp (a)] is an independent risk factor for atherosclerosis-related
events that is under strong genetic control (heritability= 0.68–0.98). However, causal …

Objective—The aim of the present study was to determine whether lipoprotein (a)[Lp (a)],
considered a causal risk factor for cardiovascular disease, primarily promotes thrombosis or …

Objective The variant allele of rs3798220 in the apolipoprotein (a) gene (LPA) is used to
assess the risk for coronary artery disease (CAD) in Europeans, where it is associated with …

Abstract Lipoprotein (a)[Lp (a)] is a complex of apolipoprotein (a)[apo (a)] and low-density
lipoprotein which is associated with atherothrombotic disease. Lp (a) plasma levels are …

Elevated plasma levels of lipoprotein (a)[Lp (a)] represent a significant independent risk
factor for the development of atherosclerosis. Interindividual levels of apo (a) vary over 1000 …
