PCSK9 affects expression of key surface proteins in human pancreatic beta cells through intra- and extracellular regulatory circuits
2021-09-28
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Aims/hypothesis</h4> Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin 9 (PCSK9) is involved in the degradation of LDLR. However, PCSK9 can target other proteins in a cell-type specific manner. While PCSK9 has been detected in pancreatic islets, its expression in insulin-producing pancreatic beta cells is debated. Herein, we studied PCSK9 expression, regulation and function in the human pancreatic beta cell line EndoC-β...
