Hepatic inactivation of murine <i>Surf4</i> results in marked reduction in plasma cholesterol
2022-08-03
Abstract excerpt
PCSK9 negatively regulates low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) abundance on the cell surface, leading to decreased hepatic clearance of LDL particles and increased levels of plasma cholesterol. We previously identified SURF4 as a cargo receptor that facilitates PCSK9 secretion in HEK293T cells (Emmer et al., 2018). Here, we generated hepatic SURF4-deficient mice ( Surf4 fl/fl Alb-Cre + ) to investigate the ph...
