Recent studies have shown several important non-traditional risk factors for atherosclerosis including hs-CRP, homocysteine, small dense low density lipoprotein particles (small dense LDL), oxidized low density lipoprotein (oxy-LDL), apolipoprotein A1 and B (Apo A1 and Apo B), lipoprotein a (Lp(a)), fibrinogen and triglyceride-rich lipoprotein remnants [10]. Here, APOB is linked to atherosclerosis.
