A whole-body mathematical model of cholesterol metabolism and transport [PDF]
Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death. Increased levels of plasma cholesterol are consistently associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. As a result, it is imperative that studies are conducted to determine the best course of action to reduce whole-body cholesterol levels.

Innovative pharmacotherapy for hepatic metabolic and chronic inflammatory diseases in China
Abstract Liver disease constitutes a significant global health concern, particularly in China where it has distinctive characteristics. China grapples with a staggering 300 million cases, predominantly due to hepatitis B and metabolic non‐alcoholic fatty liver disease. Additionally, hepatocellular carcinoma has become a prevalent which is a lethal type

PCSK9 and Lipoprotein(a) [PDF]
Proprotein convertase subtilisin kexin type 9 (PCSK9) has rapidly become a focus of intensive investigation worldwide because of its linkage to multiple clinically important facets of hepatic lipoprotein metabolism. To facilitate secretion and proper folding, the zymogen pro-PCSK9 must undergo autocatalytic cleavage.

Lactate and Lactylation in AKI‐to‐CKD: Epigenetic Regulation and Therapeutic Opportunities
ABSTRACT Lactate is not only a byproduct of glycolysis, but is also considered an energy source, gluconeogenic precursor, signalling molecule and protein modifier during the process of cellular metabolism. The discovery of lactylation reveals the multifaceted functions of lactate in cellular metabolism and opens new avenues for lactate‐related research.

Abstract Aims [D3,G40,K41.C16 diacid]exendin‐4 (acyl‐ExD3) and [F1,G40,K41.C16 diacid]exendin‐4 (acyl‐ExF1) are oppositely biased glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (GLP‐1) receptor agonists that preferentially promote β‐arrestin recruitment or G protein‐induced signalling, respectively.
