Lipoprotein (a)(Lp [a]) can be defined as a lipoprotein particle having as a protein moiety
apolipoprotein B-100 (the protein associated with low-density lipoprotein) disulfide-linked to …

The status of lipoprotein (a)[Lp (a)] as a cardiovascular risk factor has been resurrected by
advances in genetics. Mendelian randomization studies show a causal link of Lp (a) with …

Background There is a well-documented empirical relationship between lipoprotein (a)[Lp
(a)] and cardiovascular disease (CVD); however, causal evidence, especially from the …

Abstract Lipoprotein (a)[Lp (a)] is an established cardiovascular risk factor, and growing
evidence indicates its causal association with atherosclerotic disease because of the …

High plasma lipoprotein (a)[Lp (a)] levels have been implicated as an independent risk
factor for coronary artery disease in Caucasians, Chinese, Africans, and Indians. Apo (a) that …

Background: Lipoprotein (a)[Lp (a)] levels predict the risk of myocardial infarction (MI) in
populations of European ancestry; however, few data are available for other ethnic groups …

Background: Lp (a)(lipoprotein [a]) is a highly atherogenic lipoprotein subfraction that may
contribute to polygenic risk of coronary artery disease (CAD), but the extent of this …

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)] 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 …

Background Coronary artery disease (CAD) risk is greater with higher plasma lipoprotein
(a)[Lp (a)] concentrations or smaller apoisoform size and putatively with increased cellular …
