Lipoprotein (a) concentrations and phenotypes in controls and patients with hypercholesterolemia or hypertriglyceridemia

MM Ritter, HC Geiss, WO Richter, P Schwandt - Metabolism, 1994 - Elsevier

Decreased plasma levels of lipoprotein (a) in patients with hypertriglyceridemia

W Bartens, DJ Rader, G Talley, HB Brewer Jr - Atherosclerosis, 1994 - Elsevier
Abstract Lipoprotein (a)(Lp (a)) is an atherogenic lipoprotein which is similar in structure to,

Lipoprotein (a) in health and disease

F Kronenberg, A Steinmetz, GM Kostner… - Critical reviews in …, 1996 - Taylor & Francis
Abstract Lipoprotein (a)[Lp (a)] represents an LDL-like particle to which the Lp (a)-specific
apolipoprotein (a) is linked via a disulfide bridge. It has gained considerable interest as a …

Apo (a) isoforms predict risk for coronary heart disease. A study in six populations.

C Sandholzer, N Saha, JD Kark, A Rees… - … and thrombosis: a …, 1992 - Am Heart Assoc
Elevated concentrations of lipoprotein (a)(Lp [a]) in plasma are associated with premature
coronary heart disease (CHD). Lp (a) levels are largely determined by alleles at the …

Molecular basis for “null” lipoprotein (a) phenotypes and the influence of apolipoprotein (a) size on plasma lipoprotein (a) level in the baboon.

AL White, JE Hixson, DL Rainwater… - Journal of Biological …, 1994 - Elsevier
High plasma levels of lipoprotein (a)(Lp (a)) and its unique apolipoprotein, apo (a), are an
independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Plasma Lp (a) levels vary over a 1000 …

Lipoprotein [a] in the chimpanezee: relationship of apo [a] phenotype to elevated plasma Lp [a] levels.

C Doucet, T Huby, J Chapman, J Thillet - Journal of lipid research, 1994 - ASBMB
Several studies have documented the presence of Lp [a] in nonhuman primates. However,
data are lacking in great apes such as the chimpanzee. We have studied the quantitative …

Variation in lipoprotein (a) concentration associated with different apolipoprotein (a) alleles.

YF Perombelon, AK Soutar… - The Journal of clinical …, 1994 - Am Soc Clin Investig
Plasma lipoprotein (a)(Lp (a)) concentrations vary considerably between individuals. To
examine the variation for products of the same and different apolipoprotein (a)(apo (a)) …
