Implication

Review evaluates PCSK9's role in endothelial dysfunction and suggests new therapeutic strategies.

Key Points

This review aims to explore PCSK9's functions in endothelial dysfunction and its potential for new cardiovascular therapies.
Reviewed in vitro, in vivo, and clinical studies related to PCSK9 and endothelial function.
Analyzed current PCSK9-targeted therapies and their effects on lipid levels and cardiovascular risk.
Discussed novel approaches to target PCSK9 signaling in endothelial cells.
PCSK9 influences endothelial dysfunction through LDLR-independent mechanisms.
Current therapies significantly lower lipid levels but their impact on endothelial PCSK9 signaling is unclear.
Novel strategies like peptide-based inhibitors show promise for targeting endothelial-specific PCSK9 pathways.
