Determination of the DNA sequence of exon 9 of the plasma PAF acetylhydrolase gene in these eight subjects revealed a previously unidentified A1001-->G missense mutation, resulting in a Gln281-->Arg substitution, in a 72-year-old woman with coronary artery disease, essential hypertension, and no plasma enzyme activity.

In the more general setting of population studies, however, it is clear that Lp-PLA(2) is a positive risk factor for coronary disease and measurements of its mass may contribute to the prediction of coronary heart disease risk, especially in individuals with low LDL cholesterol levels.

A recent report demonstrates that plasma platelet-activating factor acetylhydrolase activity increases in men and women with stable angina or acute coronary syndromes, supporting previously published data that plasma levels of the protein are independently and positively associated with the risk of coronary artery disease.

A meta-analysis including a total of 12 studies (5 prospective, 4 case-control, 1 case-only, and 2 cross-sectional studies; n=26 118) was undertaken to examine the association of the following: (1) Lp-PLA2 activity versus cardiovascular biomarkers and risk factors and CHD events (2 prospective studies; n=4884); (2) PLA2G7 single-nucleotide polymorphisms and Lp-PLA2 activity (3 prospective, 2 case-control, 2 cross-sectional studies; up to n=6094); and (3) PLA2G7 single-nucleotide polymorphisms and angiographic coronary artery disease (2 case-control, 1 case-only study; n=4971 cases) and CHD events (5 prospective, 2 case-control studies; n=5523).
