Efficacy and safety of switching to ezetimibe 10 mg/rosuvastatin 2.5 mg in Korean patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and dyslipidaemia: A multicentre, prospective study (EROICA study)

open access: yesDiabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, Volume 28, Issue 2, Page 906-913, February 2026.
Abstract Aims To evaluate the lipid‐lowering efficacy, safety, and adherence of switching from moderate‐ or low‐intensity statin monotherapy to ezetimibe 10 mg/rosuvastatin 2.5 mg in Korean patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and dyslipidaemia.

Neuronal PCSK9 regulates cognitive performances via the modulation of ApoER2 synaptic localization

open access: yesPharmacological Research
PCSK9 promotes the degradation of the low-density lipoprotein receptors and its inhibition by monoclonal antibodies or gene silencing approaches results in the reduction of plasma cholesterol levels coupled to that of cardiovascular events.

Evaluation of Pathogenic Variants Associated With Monogenic Disorders of Dyslipidemia in Patients With Well Characterised MASLD

open access: yesLiver International, Volume 46, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Dyslipidemia is common in patients with MASLD, but the frequency and significance of inherited disorders of dyslipidemia are unclear. We investigated the prevalence and significance of pathogenic variants associated with selected monogenic disorders of dyslipidemia in 3358 patients with well‐characterised MASLD. Approach We

Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 deficiency in extrahepatic tissues: emerging considerations

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology
Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) is primarily secreted by hepatocytes. PCSK9 is critical in liver low-density lipoprotein receptors (LDLRs) metabolism.

Identifying low density lipoprotein cholesterol associated variants in the Annexin A2 (ANXA2) gene. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Annexin-A2 (AnxA2) is an endogenous inhibitor of proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type-9 (PCSK9). The repeat-one (R1) domain of AnxA2 binds to PCSK9, blocking its ability to promote degradation of low-density lipoprotein ...

Rationale and Design of the PASSIVATE‐CAP Trial: The Preventive Intervention Value of Drug‐Coated Balloons in Vulnerable Coronary Atherosclerotic Plaques

open access: yesClinical Cardiology, Volume 49, Issue 1, January 2026.
PASSIVATE‐CAP Research Overview and Flowchart. ABSTRACT Background Patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) face a significantly increased risk of cardiovascular events due to vulnerable plaques. However, no clear evidence supports performing preventive percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for non‐flow‐limiting vulnerable plaques.
