Abstract excerpt
We have developed a sensitive, high-resolutin method for the analysis of the apolipoprotein(a) [apo(a)] isoforms using sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-agarose/gradient polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. In an analysis of the genetic polymorphism of apo(a) isoforms and their relationship with plasma lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] levels in Japanese and Chinese, this method identified 25 different apo(a) isoforms and...
