摘要：
Lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)) is present in humans and primates. It has many properties in common with low-density lipoprotein, but Qcontains a unique protein moiety designated apo(a), which is linked to apolipoprotein B-100 by a single disulfide bond. International standards for Lp(a) measurement and optimized Lp(a) assays insensitive to isoform size are not yet widely available. Lp(a) is a risk factor for coronary artery disease, and smaller size apo(a) is associated with coronary artery disease. The physiologic role of Lp(a) is unknown.
