Effects of age, sex, and menopausal status on plasma lipoprotein(a) levels. The Framingham Offspring Study.

1 Apr 1993

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] is an atherogenic particle that structurally resembles a low density lipoprotein (LDL) particle but contains a molecule of apolipoprotein(a) attached to apolipoprotein B-100 by a disulfide bond. Because elevated plasma levels of Lp(a) have been shown to be an independent risk factor for coronary artery disease, it is important to define normal ranges for this lipoprotein....
