Indicators
Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol — the primary lipid target in cardiovascular prevention.
Tests
A lipoprotein (a) test measures the level of lipoprotein (a) in your blood. A high level of lipoprotein (a) may mean you have a high risk for heart disease and stroke .
Indicators
A lipoprotein that carries cholesterol around the body, for use by various cells. LDL transports cholesterol to the arteries and increased levels are associated with atherosclerosis, and thus myocardial infarctions and strokes. This is why cholesterol inside LDL lipoproteins is called bad cholesterol.
Tests
The determination of the amount of oxidized low density lipoprotein cholesterol antibody in a biological specimen.
Indicators
Platelet-activating factor acetylhydrolase (441 aa, ~50 kDa) is encoded by the human PLA2G7 gene. This protein is involved in platelet-activating factor metabolism.
Tests
The determination of the remnant lipoprotein present in a sample.
Indicators
A family of apolipoproteins that are associated with high-density lipoprotein particles in the serum. These proteins may play a role in both the acute-phase of inflammation and in cholesterol transport.
Tests
The determination of the amount of the apolipoprotein B in the very low density lipoprotein fraction of a biological specimen.
Tests
The determination of the very low density lipoprotein cholesterol subtype 2 present in a sample.
