Summary of PCSK9 inhibitor mechanisms. PCSK9 inhibitors (PCSK9‐i) primarily lower LDL‐cholesterol (LDL‐C) by blocking PCSK9‐mediated degradation of hepatic LDL receptors (LDLR), enhancing LDL clearance. Beyond LDLR‐dependent effects, PCSK9‐i exert multiple benefits via LDLR‐independent pathways.

VAP, a Versatile Access Point for the Endoplasmic Reticulum: Review and analysis of FFAT-like motifs in the VAPome. [PDF]
Dysfunction of VAMP-associated protein (VAP) is associated with neurodegeneration, both Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Parkinson's disease. Here we summarize what is known about the intracellular interactions of VAP in humans and model organisms.

Proteomics Insights Into Lysosome Biogenesis and Maturation
ABSTRACT Lysosomes constitute the main degradative organelle of most eukaryotic cells and are capable of breaking down a wide spectrum of biomolecules, including proteins, lipids, glycans, and DNA/RNA. They play crucial roles in the regulation of cellular homeostasis, acting as metabolic signaling centers for the correlation of nutrient availability ...

Pathogenic Huntington Alters BMP Signaling and Synaptic Growth through Local Disruptions of Endosomal Compartments [PDF]
Huntington’s disease (HD) is a neurodegenerative disorder caused by expansion of a polyglutamine (polyQ) stretch within the Huntingtin (Htt) protein.

ABSTRACT Prenatal stress, mediated by elevated glucocorticoid (GC) levels, is a relevant modulator of fetal brain development and a known risk factor for neurodevelopmental disorders. Using the avian embryo as a vertebrate model, we injected corticosterone into the yolk on embryonic day 6 (E6) and assessed neurodevelopmental outcomes at day 14 (E14 ...

ABSTRACT Background Muscle RING finger (MuRF) proteins are striated muscle‐specific E3 ubiquitin ligases essential for muscle homeostasis. Whereas MuRF1 is well known for its role in muscle atrophy, MuRF2 and MuRF3 contribute to microtubule stabilization, influencing muscle differentiation and function.

SNX17 protects integrins from degradation by sorting between lysosomal and recycling pathways. [PDF]
The FERM-like domain-containing sorting nexins of the SNX17/SNX27/SNX31 family have been proposed to mediate retrieval of transmembrane proteins from the lysosomal pathway.

No genome‐wide association study (GWAS) on cognitive function in individuals of Japanese ancestry has been conducted. This study performed GWASs on cognitive function in elderly Japanese individuals, identifying two significant loci on chromosomes 6 and 20 (near PRL, HDGFL1, and BANF2, SNX5).
