Helper and ionizable lipids play a crucial role in determining ApoE binding and subsequent liver tropism and LDLR‐mediated uptake. Ionizable lipids primarily govern the LDLR‐independent uptake pathway. This complementary interplay between lipid components ultimately governs LNP delivery performance and therapeutic efficacy in the liver.

Abstract Aims Natriuretic peptide‐based pre‐heart failure screening has been proposed in recent guidelines. However, an effective strategy to identify screening targets from the general population, more than half of which are at risk for heart failure or pre‐heart failure, has not been well established.

Background Immunotherapy approaches based on T cells provided breakthroughs in cancer treatment but could cause many immune-related adverse events, and their efficacy is limited for many cancers with an acquired dysfunction/exhaustion of T cells.

Proprotein convertases in high-density lipoprotein metabolism [PDF]
The proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexins (PCSKs) are a serine endopeptidase family. PCSK members cleave amino acid residues and modulate the activity of precursor proteins. Evidence from patients and animal models carrying genetic alterations in PCSK members show that PCSK members are involved in various metabolic processes.

Expanding the genotypic spectrum of PCSK1 deficiency: A novel mutation in severe neonatal diarrhea
Abstract Among congenital diarrhea and enteropathies (CODEs), proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 1 (PCSK1) deficiency is a rare monogenic disorder, associated with severe neonatal diarrhea and polyendocrinopathies. We report an 18‐day‐old male neonate, born to consanguineous parents, presenting with persistent watery diarrhea, metabolic ...

Mouse Models of Human Proprotein Convertase Insufficiency
AbstractThe kexin-like proprotein convertases perform the initial proteolytic cleavages that ultimately generate a variety of different mature peptide and proteins, ranging from brain neuropeptides to endocrine peptide hormones, to structural proteins, among others.

The proprotein convertase furin in tumour progression [PDF]
Proprotein convertases are proteases that have been implicated in the activation of a wide variety of proteins. These proteins are generally synthesised as precursor proteins and require limited proteolysis for conversion into their mature bioactive counterparts.

Evaluation of adropin indices and PCSK9 in non-diabetic men with severe obstructive sleep apnea
We aimed to investigate the relationship among proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9), adropin levels, inflammation, and sleep variables in non-diabetic males with severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).

ABSTRACT Ischemic stroke is frequently associated with symptomatic intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (sICAS), is a leading cause of global disability and mortality. Current guidelines recommend dual antiplatelet and intensive statin therapies. Proprotein convertase subtilisin 9/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) inhibitors have emerged as a potent lipid‐lowering
