ABSTRACT Background High‐intensity statins are standard therapy after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for acute coronary syndrome (ACS), yet tolerability concerns and residual cardiovascular risk remain important challenges. Moderate‐intensity statin therapy combined with ezetimibe has emerged as a potential alternative, although its ...

PCSK9-mediated degradation of the LDL receptor generates a 17 kDa C-terminal LDL receptor fragment
Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) binds to the LDL receptor (LDLR) at the cell surface and reroutes the internalized LDLR to intracellular degradation.

Type 1 diabetes (T1D) results from the immune‐mediated destruction of insulin‐producing pancreatic β‐cells. Recent human studies show that early β‐cell stress maladaptations precede overt immune cell infiltration. DOC2B, a vesicle secretion regulatory protein that supports β‐cell functionality and resilience against stress, declines early in T1D ...

Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) lower LDL cholesterol and may influence cancer through immunomodulatory pathways. However, their effect on human cancer incidence remains unknown. We conducted a retrospective, propensity score‐matched study (Clalit Health Services, Israel, 2010–2023) comparing PCSK9 ...

Vascular Calcification: Mechanisms, Models, and Therapies
ABSTRACT Vascular calcification represents an active multifactorial process that mirrors several key features of skeletal bone mineralization. Clinically, it is characterized by diminished arterial compliance and increased arterial wall stiffness, both of which serve as independent predictors of significant adverse cardiovascular events.

Fatty Acid Metabolism in Health and Cancer: From Fundamental Mechanisms to Therapeutic Application
The modulation of the TME by fatty acid metabolism primarily occurs through four key pathways: inflammation regulation, signal transduction, translation to TME, and oxidative stress. ABSTRACT Fatty acid metabolism (FAM) plays a vital role in maintaining health by supporting energy production, cellular structure, and signaling processes.

PCSK9 promotes progression of anaplastic thyroid cancer through E-cadherin endocytosis
Although anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) constitutes only 1–2% of all thyroid malignancies, it is associated with an exceptionally high mortality rate, accounting for 14–39% of thyroid cancer-related deaths. In this study, we identified the critical role
