Lp(a) is a human serum protein whose structure is close to that of LDL. Its density lies between those of LDL and HDL. The Lp(a) concentration in blood varies from almost undetectable levels to more than 100 mg/dl. The wide differences in Lp(a) levels are largely due to hereditary factors and cannot be controlled by dietary or lifestyle changes. The presence of high Lp(a) levels in serum is a significant marker of increased risk for atherosclerosis and coronary heart disease.
