## What does the Myeloperoxidase (MPO) test tell you?

An enzyme released by white blood cells inside inflamed arteries — an early marker of unstable plaque, independent of cholesterol.

Myeloperoxidase is an enzyme secreted by activated white blood cells in the artery wall. Elevated blood MPO signals active vascular inflammation and has been associated with plaque that is more likely to rupture, which is why it is used as a complement to hs-CRP and lipid markers rather than a replacement for them. It is most useful for people with a family history of early heart disease, borderline cholesterol, or metabolic risk factors who want a view of arterial inflammation beyond cholesterol numbers. Results are interpreted alongside hs-CRP, ApoB, Lp(a) and lipoprotein particle testing.
