Lipoprotein(a): more interesting than ever after 50 years.

Current opinion in lipidology - 1 Apr 2012

Dubé Joseph B, Boffa Michael B, Hegele Robert A, Koschinsky Marlys L

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease; we highlight the most recent research initiatives that have sought to define Lp(a)-dependent pathogenicity as well as pharmacologic approaches to lowering Lp(a). RECENT FINDINGS: Recent large-scale meta-analyses have confirmed elevated Lp(a) concentrations to be a moderate but consistent prospective coronary heart disease (CHD)...
