Background and aims High lipoprotein (a)[Lp (a)] concentrations are associated with
increased coronary artery disease (CAD) risk. Lp (a) is regulated mainly genetically by the …

Abstract Background Lipoprotein (a)(Lp (a)) concentrations are a major independent risk
factor for coronary artery disease (CAD) and are mainly determined by variation in LPA. Up …

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 …

Background An increased level of Lp (a) lipoprotein has been identified as a risk factor for
coronary artery disease that is highly heritable. The genetic determinants of the Lp (a) …

Lipoprotein (a)(Lp (a)) is a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases and mainly regulated by
the complex LPA gene. We investigated the types of variation in the LPA gene and their …

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 …

Objective: Lipoprotein (a)(Lp [a]) is associated with coronary artery disease (CAD) but also
to LDL (low-density lipoprotein) cholesterol. The genetic architecture of Lp (a) remains …

Plasma lipoprotein (a)[L p (a)] is a quantitative genetic trait with a very broad and skewed
distribution, which is largely controlled by genetic variants at the LPA locus on chromosome …

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 …

The serum concentration of lipoprotein Lp (a) is known to be highly heritable and associated
with cardiovascular risk. A genome-wide variance component linkage analysis was …
