According to Pauling/Rath lp(a) is a ldl particle which is surrounded by the sticky protein apo-a.
What kind of apo-a is that?
The laboratory writes: apo-a1 is a protective factor against atherosclerosis and occurs predominantly in hdl. I thought, that‘s good. My apo-a1 value is high and my hdl also. Is that right?
Apo-a2 is the transporter for phospholipides.
Apo-a3 is contained in vldl, ldl and hdl.
And apo-b especially in ldl.
What type of apo-a should be measured - additional to lp(a)?
