Background
Lipoprotein(a), or Lp(a), is a lipoprotein composed of LDL and apolipoprotein(a), which is covalently attached to apolipoprotein B-100. Its plasma levels are primarily determined by genetics and vary widely among individuals. Elevated Lp(a) is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, including coronary artery disease, stroke, and aortic stenosis. Its structural similarity to plasminogen may impair fibrinolysis, contributing to its proatherogenic and prothrombotic effects. Despite its clinical importance, effective treatments to lower Lp(a) are limited. Measuring Lp(a) is increasingly used to identify individuals with elevated cardiovascular risk.
Synonyms
Apolipoprotein(a), Apo(a), Lp(a), LPA
