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 …

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 …

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 …

The distributions of plasma lipoprotein (a), or Lp (a), levels differ significantly among ethnic
groups. Individuals of African descent have a two-to threefold higher mean plasma level of …

Background: High plasma lipoprotein (a)[Lp (a)] level is a strong and important risk factor for
cardiovascular disease (CVD). Small-sized apolipoprotein (a)[apo (a)] isoforms (F, B, S1 …

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 …

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 …

Lipoprotein (a)(Lp (a)) is an independent, genetically regulated cardiovascular risk factor. Lp
(a) plasma levels are largely determined by the apolipoprotein (a)(apo (a)) component, and …

Objective—Lp (a)(lipoprotein (a)) concentrations are widely genetically determined by the
LPA isoforms and show 5-fold interpopulation differences. Two-to 3-fold differences have …

We have developed a sensitve, high-resolution method for the analysis of the apolipoprotein
(a)[apo (a)] isoforms using sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-agarose/gradient polyacrylamide …
