Natural Proprotein Convertase Subtilisin/Kexin Type 9 Inhibitors: A Review

Combinatorial Chemistry and High Throughput Screening, 2023
Abstract: PCSK9 (proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9) is an enzyme that helps to reduce cardiovascular events. This clinical result is attributable primarily to the crucial involvement of PCSK9 in regulating the low-density lipoprotein cholesterol level.

Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 inhibition

Current Opinion in Lipidology, 2012
There are now ample data that demonstrate that inhibition of PCSK9 (proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9) can safely lower LDL cholesterol synergistically with statins. Considering that PCSK9 was first identified less than a decade ago, the last few years have shown rapid and remarkable advancements in our understanding and knowledge of the ...

Proprotein Convertase Subtilisin/Kexin-Type 9 and Lipid Metabolism

2020
Plasma levels of cholesterol, especially low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), are positively correlated with the risk of cardiovascular disease. Buildup of LDL in the intima promotes the formation of foam cells and consequently initiates atherosclerosis, one of the main underlying causes of cardiovascular disease. Hepatic LDL receptor (LDLR) is

Advances in the field of proprotein convertase subtilisin kexin type 9 inhibitors

Current Opinion in Cardiology, 2016
Proprotein convertase subtilisin kexin type 9 (PCSK9) inhibitors are promising therapies that inhibit the degradation of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) receptors in the hepatocyte and thus increase LDL cholesterol (LDL-C) uptake from the blood. This review summarizes main findings in the field of PCSK9 inhibitors, from basic mechanism to clinical ...
