PIC

（LP-PLA₂）Lipoprotein-associated phospholipaseA2

Continuous monitoring method

New index of vascular endothelial inflammation

Clinical significance

The content of Lp-PLA2 in unstable plaques is much higher than that in stable plaques. When rupture of atherosclerotic plaque in the vascular cavity is about to or has occurred, Lp-PLA2 will be released into the blood in large amounts, and cause its blood level to increase significantly. Therefore, the concentration of Lp-PLA2 in the blood can reflect the degree of inflammation of atherosclerotic plaque. By detecting Lp-PLA2 in the blood, the degree of inflammation and stability of atherosclerotic plaque can be effectively understood. In this way, it can warn the occurrence of myocardial infarction and cerebral thrombosis, which is of great significance to prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular emergencies.
