Abstract
The fatty acid composition of lipoprotein (a) is known for the cholesteryl ester, triglyceride and the total and major individual phospholipid fractions. Minor phospholipids' fatty acids are unknown for lipoprotein (a). The minor phospholipids include phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylserine and lysophosphatidylcholine. This study sought to elucidate the fatty acid composition of the minor individual phospholipids of lipoprotein (a). For validation and comparison, low density lipoprotein was from lipoprotein (a) donors' blood. Palmitic acid was the major fatty acid in all minor phospholipids except phosphatidylinositol where stearic acid was the largest contributor for Lp(a).
