Abstract
Background and Aims: Mendelian randomisation as well as epidemiology studies have established an association between elevated lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] levels and increased cardiovascular risk. Besides the pro-atherogenic properties of the LDL- like moiety, Lp(a) further contributes to the disease pathology by carrying pro-inflammatory oxidized phospholipids (OxPLs). While blocking these OxPL epitopes profoundly reduces the monocytic inflammatory response, a residual inflammatory risk remains.
