Abstract excerpt
We determined apo(a) phenotypes using SDS-PAGE followed by immunoblotting in samples from a control group of 179 and from 68 Korean patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). The CAD group showed significantly higher Lp(a) levels than the control group, which might be partially attributable to the differences in apo(a) phenotype frequencies although it was not statistically significant, and was partially...
