Genetic evidence that lipoprotein(a) associates with atherosclerotic stenosis rather than venous thrombosis.

Arteriosclerosis, thrombosis, and vascular biology - 1 Jul 2012

Kamstrup Pia R, Tybjærg-Hansen Anne, Nordestgaard Børge G

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: The aim of the present study was to determine whether lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)], considered a causal risk factor for cardiovascular disease, primarily promotes thrombosis or atherosclerosis. METHODS AND RESULTS: Using a Mendelian randomization study design, we measured plasma Lp(a) and genetically elevated Lp(a) levels through the LPA kringle IV type 2 repeat genotype in 41231 individuals. We included 2...
