Importance Lipoprotein (a)(Lp [a]) is a low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol–like particle
bound to apolipoprotein (a). This novel marker of cardiovascular disease acts through …

Evidence that elevated lipoprotein (a)(Lp [a]) levels contribute to cardiovascular disease
(CVD) and calcific aortic valve stenosis (CAVS) is substantial. Development of isoform …

Background High lipoprotein (a) concentrations present in 10%–20% of the population have
long been linked to increased risk of ischemic cardiovascular disease. It is unclear whether …

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), is a modified atherogenic low-density lipoprotein particle that
contains apolipoprotein (a). Its levels are highly heritable and variable in the population …

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 …

Human epidemiologic and genetic evidence using the Mendelian randomization approach
in large-scale studies now strongly supports that elevated lipoprotein (a)[Lp (a)] is a causal …

Background: Genomic analyses have suggested that the LPA gene and its associated
plasma biomarker, lipoprotein (a)(Lp [a]), represent a causal risk factor for coronary heart …

Background The lipoprotein (a) pathway is a causal factor in coronary heart disease. We
used a genetic approach to distinguish the relevance of two distinct components of this …

In Japan, a super-aged society, deaths from atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease
(ASCVD), especially cardiac diseases including coronary artery disease (CAD) such as …
