Anti-HMGCR myopathy may resemble limb-girdle muscular dystrophy
International audienceObjective To determine the prevalence and clinical features of anti-HMGCR myopathy among patients with presumed limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD) in whom genetic testing has failed to elucidate causative mutations.

Navigating the Shallows and Rapids of Cholesterol Synthesis Downstream of HMGCR
Cholesterol is vital for human life, but its levels must be tightly regulated. Too little cholesterol leads to developmental disorders, but too much is widely appreciated as contributing to heart disease. Levels are regulated through the coordinated control of cholesterol synthesis, uptake and efflux. Here, we focus on cholesterol synthesis.

ABSTRACT Protoberberine alkaloids are a characteristic group of natural products in Coptis plants known for their notable pharmacological activities. However, the structural similarity and the substrate promiscuity of their biosynthetic enzymes have left the precise synthetic pathways remain unclarified, posing challenges to regulate product formation.

AMPK-mediated HMGCR regulation of cholesterol metabolism in macrophages
Atherosclerosis, the accumulation of cholesterol-loaded macrophages (foam cells) in the arteries, leads to cardiovascular disease, which is the leading cause of mortality in the developed world.

Understanding the Regulation of HMGCR
Statins inhibit 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase (HMGCR), the rate limiting enzyme of the mevalonate (MVA) pathway, and are also known to possess tumour-specific apoptotic effects.

APOE and Cerebral Microbleeds: Insights Into Causal Proteins and Therapeutic Targets
This study identifies APOE as a key causal protein for cerebral microbleeds (CMBs). By integrating Mendelian randomization (MR) and colocalization analysis of the plasma proteome from UKB‐PPP and deCODE datasets, we provide genetic evidence that circulating APOE levels are causally linked to CMB susceptibility. Furthermore, protein–protein interaction (

HSP90 interacts with HMGCR and promotes the progression of hepatocellular carcinoma
Heat shock protein 90 (HSP90) has been reported to promote the growth and inhibit apoptosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells. However, the underlying mechanisms are not fully understood. Immunostaining of the tissue array demonstrated that HSP90 was upregulated in HCC clinical samples and was associated with clinical features.

SUMMARY Lipid disorders pose therapeutic challenges. Previously we discovered that mutation of the hepatocyte β-hydroxybutyrate transporter Slc16a6a in zebrafish causes hepatic steatosis during fasting, marked by increased hepatic triacylglycerol, but ...
