Abstract Lipoprotein (a)[Lp (a)] is a low-density-like lipoprotein with the addition of a Lp (a)-
specific protein, apolipoprotein (a)[apo (a)]. Plasma concentrations of Lp (a) are a risk factor …

Lipoprotein (a)[Lp (a)] is a quantitative genetic trait in human plasma that is almost
unaffected by age, diet, or life-style. Thc distribution of Lp (a) plasma concentrations is …

Abstract Levels of Lipoprotein (a)[Lp (a)] correlate directly with atherosclerosis risk. The Lp
(a) particle is physically and chemically similar to low density lipoprotein (LDL), the main …

Lipoprotein (a)[Lp (a)] has attracted the interest of researchers and physicians due to its
intriguing properties, including an intragenic multiallelic copy number variation in the LPA …

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 …

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 …

Objective—Increased levels of lipoprotein (a) are a highly heritable risk factor for coronary
artery disease (CAD). The genetic determinants of lipoprotein (a) levels are mainly because …

In 2010, more than 45 years after the initial discovery of lipoprotein (a)[Lp (a)] by Kare Berg,
an European Atherosclerosis Society Consensus Panel recommended screening for …

The human plasma lipoprotein Lp (a) has gained considerable clinical interest as a
genetically determined risk factor for atherosclerotic vascular diseases. Numerous (including …

Lipoprotein (a)[Lp (a)] is a quantitative genetic trait that in the general population is largely
controlled by 1 major locus—the locus for the apolipoprotein (a)[apo (a)] gene. Sibpair …
