Deep coverage whole genome sequences and plasma lipoprotein(a) in individuals of European and African ancestries. [PDF]
Lipoprotein(a), Lp(a), is a modified low-density lipoprotein particle that contains apolipoprotein(a), encoded by LPA, and is a highly heritable, causal risk factor for cardiovascular diseases that varies in concentrations across ancestries. Here, we use

Lipoprotein(a) (LP(a))—discovered by Kare Berg [1] in 1963—is of increasing importance in clinical routine as reflected by the ESC/EAS Guidelines for the Management of Dyslipidaemias and the recent AHA Guideline [2, 3].

Importance Epidemiological and genetic data have implicated lipoprotein(a) as a potentially modifiable risk factor for atherosclerotic disease and aortic stenosis, but there are no approved pharmacological treatments.

Lipoprotein(a) in Atherosclerotic Diseases: From Pathophysiology to Diagnosis and Treatment
Lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)) is a low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol-like particle bound to apolipoprotein(a). Increased Lp(a) levels are an independent, heritable causal risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) as they are largely

Small Interfering RNA to Reduce Lipoprotein(a) in Cardiovascular Disease.
BACKGROUND Lipoprotein(a) is a presumed risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Olpasiran is a small interfering RNA that reduces lipoprotein(a) synthesis in the liver. METHODS We conducted a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled,

High levels of lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)], an apoB100-containing lipoprotein, are an independent and causal risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases through mechanisms associated with increased atherogenesis, inflammation, and thrombosis. Lp(a)

Lipoprotein(a) Reduction in Persons with Cardiovascular Disease.
BACKGROUND Lipoprotein(a) levels are genetically determined and, when elevated, are a risk factor for cardiovascular disease and aortic stenosis. There are no approved pharmacologic therapies to lower lipoprotein(a) levels.

Lp(a) (Lipoprotein[a]) Concentrations and Incident Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease
Supplemental Digital Content is available in the text. Objective: Lp(a) (lipoprotein[a]) concentrations are associated with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), and new therapies that enable potent and specific reduction are in development. In

Statin therapy increases lipoprotein(a) levels.
AIMS Lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] is elevated in 20-30% of people. This study aimed to assess the effect of statins on Lp(a) levels. METHODS AND RESULTS This subject-level meta-analysis includes 5256 patients (1371 on placebo and 3885 on statin) from six ...
