Background
Apolipoprotein E (APOE)
is the most statistically significant genetic risk factor for late - onset Alzheimer disease (LOAD).
At
apolipoprotein A-V (APOA5), carriers of rare non-synonymous mutations
were at 2.2-fold increased risk for MI.
Involved in the initial discovery of apoE as a major
apolipoprotein regulating lipoprotein metabolism, including that apoE
is induced by fat / cholesterol feeding in atherogenesis.
Transgenic overexpression of APOC3 in mice also led to hypertriglyceridemia that
was likely due to defective lipolysis (20), but it should
be noted that an excess of any
apolipoprotein has a similar effect (26 — 29), probably by shielding the core TG and preventing LPL access.
In 60 801 patients with coronary heart disease and 123 504 controls, OR for myocardial infarction
was 0 · 96 (0 · 94 - 0 · 98; p < 0 · 0001) per 1 - SD increment in
apolipoprotein (a) protein isoform size in serum due to rs2457564, which
was directionally concordant with the OR observed in PROMIS for a similar change.
Lipoprotein (a)- lowering interventions could
be preferentially effective in reducing the risk of coronary heart disease in individuals with smaller
apolipoprotein (a) isoforms.
Hypertriglyceridemia
is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease, and plasma triglycerides (TGs) correlate strongly with plasma
apolipoprotein C - III (ApoC - III) levels.
Finally, we compared phenotypic versus genotypic ORs to estimate whether
apolipoprotein (a) isoform size, lipoprotein (a) concentration, or both
