Abstract Lipoprotein (a)[Lp (a)] is a quantitative genetic trait in human plasma associated
with atherothrombotic disease. The major determinant of Lp (a) concentration is the …

Abstract Lipoprotein (a)(Lp (a)) represents a quantitative trait in human plasma associated
with atherothrombotic disease. Large variation in the distribution of Lp (a) concentrations …

Summary Apolipoprotein (a)[apo (a)] exhibits a genetic size polymorphism explaining about
40% of the variability in lipoprotein (a)[Lp (a)] concentration in Tyroleans. Lp (a) …

Several studies indicate that the inter-individual variation in plasma concentrations of
lipoprotein (a)(Lp (a)) is mainly under genetic control. To define the effect of three DNA …

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 …

Abstract A size polymorphism (K IV VNTR) and largely unknown sequence variation in the
apolipoprotein (a)[apo (a)] gene on chromosome 6q26–q27 together determine most of the …

Abstract Plasma lipoprotein [a](Lp [a]) concentrations are inversely associated with, and
largely determined by, apolipoprotein [a](apo [a]) gene size, a highly polymorphic trait. We …

Heritability of LPA allele, apo (a) isoform sizes, and isoform-associated lipoprotein (a)[Lp (a)]
levels was studied in 82 Caucasian and African-American families with two parents and two …

Abstract Plasma lipoprotein (a)(Lp (a)) is a quantitative trait associated with atherothrombotic
disease in European and Asian populations. Lp (a) concentrations vary widely within and …

Apolipoprotein (a) is coded by one of the most polymorphic genes known in humans. In
white and Asian populations variation in this gene is the major determinant of the plasma …
