摘要
动脉粥样硬化是严重危害人类健康的重大疾病。新近的研究表明,前蛋白转化酶枯草溶菌素9作为降解低密度脂蛋白受体的重要分子,影响前蛋白转化酶枯草溶菌素9-低密度脂蛋白受体途径导致低密度脂蛋白代谢异常,与动脉粥样硬化形成的关系密切。现就前蛋白转化酶枯草溶菌素9影响动脉粥样硬化研究进展做一综述。
Atherosclerosis is a serious disease that is harmful to human health. Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 ( PCSK9 ), a newly recognized protein, which plays a key role in cholesterol homeostasis by enhancing the degradation of hepatic low-density lipoprotein receptor and causing marked increases in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol concentration and atherosclerosis. This review pro- vides important links between PCSK9, low-density lipoprotein receptor and the mechanisms of atherosclerosis.
