lipoprotein (a)myocardial infarctionThe aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between the serum levels of lipoprotein (a) [Lp (a)] and apolipoproteins (apo A‐1 and apo B) in schoolchildren with a history of coronary and cerebrovascular events in their grandparents.We measured ...
Available immunoassays to measure apoB recognize both apoB48 and apoB100. However, fasting measurement is not necessary because even in the postprandial state, apoB48-containing chylomicrons generally represent less than 1% of circulating apoB-containing particles [1]....
Article: Lipoprotein(a) and apolipoprotein B plasma concentrations in hypothyroid, euthyroid, and hyperthyroid subjects
Lipoprotein(a) (Lp[a]) is composed of a low-density lipoprotein (LDL) particle and an apolipoprotein B100 molecule linked by a disulfide bond to apolipoprotein(a) (apo[a]). An elevated Lp(a) level contributes to the pathogenesis of ASCVD1and is an independent risk factor for myocardial in...
Lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)) is a plasma lipoprotein highly correlated with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease. It contains two major proteins: apoB-100 similar to that present in LDL, and apo(a) which exists in different polymorphic forms with apparent molecular weight (Mr) from 418 to 838...
Lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a))—a low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-like particle containing apolipoprotein B (apoB) with an additional protein, apolipoprotein(a) (apo(a))—has been identified as a causal factor for coronary heart disease (CHD) based initially on epidemiological findings and most recently...
Apolipoproteina [apo(a)] is covalently bound to apo B and accounts for the distinction betweenLDLand Lp(a) particles. Apo(a), which is different than apo A-1 found in HDL and responsible forreverse cholesterol transport, has a highly heterogeneous nature. The apo(a)kringleIV–like sequence...
Lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)], a low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-like particle with a large glycoprotein, apolipoprotein(a) [Apo(a)], is covalently bound to apolipoprotein B 100 by a disulfide bridge[1]. Apo(a) genotype determines both the synthetic rate and size of the Apo(a) moiety of Lp(...
lipoprotein(a); atherothrombosis; inflammation; coagulation; fibrinolysis1. Introduction Lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)) is a complex plasma protein that consist of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol and apolipoprotein B-100 (apoB) linked to the plasminogen-like apolipoprotein(a) (apo(a)) via a ...
