Fenofibrate treatment increases human serum proprotein convertase subtilisin kexin type 9 levels

Journal of Lipid Research, 2010
Over the past several years, proprotein convertase subtilisin kexin type 9 (PCSK9) has gained significant attention as a key regulator of serum LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C) levels.

Impact of incretin analogues on lipid and lipoprotein metabolism in obesity and diabetes

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Incretin‐based therapies have gained momentum as a key strategy for reducing cardiovascular risk in individuals with obesity and/or type 2 diabetes (T2D). It remains unclear whether the cardiovascular benefits reflect a direct reduction in atherogenic lipoproteins—namely, low‐density lipoproteins (LDL), very low‐density lipoproteins (VLDL) and

Targeting PCSK9 in Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells: An Effective Strategy to Suppress Ferroptosis and Attenuate Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Progression

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
PCSK9 aggravates AAA by promoting ferroptosis in VSMCs. In the pathological AAA environment, PCSK9 upregulation triggers ferritinophagy‐dependent degradation of FTH1, leading to Fe2+ release, triggering lipid peroxidation and ferroptosis, exacerbating AAA.

Effectiveness of Telehealth Low‐Carbohydrate Intervention in Preventing Chronic Kidney Disease: A Real‐World, Retrospective, Matched Cohort Study

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Lifestyle interventions targeting metabolic health may influence chronic kidney disease (CKD) risk, particularly among adults with type 2 diabetes and obesity. We evaluated real‐world associations between a telehealth‐delivered, individualized nutrition therapy program (VINT) and CKD incidence and progression compared with usual ...

Bowel Obstruction/Ileus Associated With the Use of Glucagon‐Like Peptide‐1 Receptor Agonists: A Nationwide Database Study

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims The association between glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonist (GLP‐1RA) use and the development of bowel obstruction/ileus remains unclear, and evidence for specific bowel obstruction/ileus subtypes remains limited. We examined the association between GLP‐1RA use and the incidence of bowel obstruction/ileus subtypes across different ...

PCSK9 inhibition fails to alter hepatic LDLR, circulating cholesterol, and atherosclerosis in the absence of ApoE[S]

Journal of Lipid Research, 2014
LDL cholesterol (LDL-C) contributes to coronary heart disease. Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) increases LDL-C by inhibiting LDL-C clearance.

Combating ageing beyond the cell: Emerging roles of extracellular proteostasis

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Ageing challenges the body's ability to maintain a stable and functional proteome, leading to protein damage and aggregation both inside and outside cells. This review focuses on the less well understood mechanisms of extracellular protein quality control and how they become disrupted in ageing, particularly in neurodegenerative diseases.

A lipid‐sensitive food choice behavior influences aging outcomes from a longevity‐promoting diet

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
C. elegans are exposed to a variety of bacteria in their natural environment and must be able to distinguish between beneficial and detrimental food sources. We show that C. elegans exposed to the bacterium from their natural habitat, Methylobacterium, disrupts lipid homeostasis, causing worms to avoid this bacterial species and choose the laboratory ...
