Immunoglobulin G
Pathway / Lipid retention & oxidation

Immunoglobulin G

protein

IgG autoantibodies targeting oxidized LDL form circulating immune complexes that promote plaque inflammation and destabilization.

Does this marker also move in each non-Type-I setting? mag 0–3; higher means less Type-I-specific. n/a = no evidence retrieved, which is not the same as no change.
