LPA, the gene coding for apolipoprotein (a)[apo (a)], is the major determinant of lipoprotein
(a)[Lp (a)] plasma levels, which are associated with risk for coronary heart disease (CHD) …

A high plasma concentration of lipoprotein (a)[Lp (a)] has been suggested as a risk factor for
coronary heart disease (CHD), but some recent prospective studies have questioned the …

Abstract Lipoprotein (a)[Lp (a)] is a cholesterol ester-rich atherogenic lipoprotein that is
composed of a particle of low density lipoprotein and a large glycoprotein, apolipoprotein …

A variable number of 5.6-kilobase kringle IV repeats in the human apolipoprotein (a)(apo
(a)) gene results in a size polymorphism of the protein and correlates inversely with the …

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 …

Elevated levels of plasma lipoprotein (a)[Lp (a)] have been correlated with the development
of atherosclerosis in human populations. Apolipoprotein (a)[apo (a); the distinguishing …

Most of the Interindividual variations in plasma levels of lipoprotein (a)[Lp (a)] can be
attributed to sequence differences linked to the apolipoprotein (a)[apo (a)] locus. Plasma …

High plasma concentrations of lipoprotein (a)[Lp (a)], a covalent low-density lipoprotein-
apolipoprotein (a)[apo (a)] complex, are associated with coronary heart disease and stroke …

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 Lipoprotein (a)[Lp (a)] is a quantitative trait in human plasma. Lp (a) consists of a
low-density lipoprotein and the plasminogen-related apolipoprotein (a)[apo (a)]. The apo (a) …
