Mashup Score: 5Evidence of an anti-inflammatory effect of PCSK9 inhibitors within the human atherosclerotic plaque - 8 month(s) ago
Preclinical evidence suggests that proprotein convertase subtilisin-kexin type 9 (PCSK9) inhibitors hold anti-inflammatory properties independently of their ability to lower LDL-cholesterol (C). However, whether PCSK9 inhibitors exert anti-inflammatory effects within the atherosclerotic plaque in humans is unknown. We explored the impact of PCSK9 inhibitors, used as monotherapy, compared with other lipid-lowering drugs (oLLD) on the expression of inflammatory markers within the plaque, assessing also the subsequent incidence of cardiovascular events.

Mashup Score: 15The age of bone marrow dictates the clonality of smooth muscle-derived cells in atherosclerotic plaques - Nature Aging - 1 year(s) ago
Kabir et al. show that aged bone marrow induces smooth muscle cell (SMC) polyclonality in atherosclerosis. Decreased TET2 levels in aged myeloid cells lead to silenced integrin β3, resulting in increased TNFα signaling and the expansion of multiple SMC progenitors.
