New Insights Into the Regulation of Lipoprotein Metabolism by PCSK9: Lessons From Stable Isotope Tracer Studies in Human Subjects
Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) is a convertase enzyme mostly produced by the liver. It is a key regulator of LDL metabolism because of its ability to enhance degradation of the LDL receptor. PCSK9 also regulates the metabolism of lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] and triglyceride-rich li...
