Summary

Description
English: Figure 1. The mechanism of action of PCSK9 inhibitors. (a) Shows that LDL-C attaches to LDL-R to incorporate it into the hepatocyte. This can either be recycled when not attached to PCSK9. When the secreted PCSK9 attaches to the LDL-R, it eventually leads to lysosomal degradation of PCSK9. (b) Illustrates that in the presence of PCSK9 monoclonal antibody, the PCSK9 is inactivated, preventing the LDL-R from being degraded. This allows for the LDL-R to be recycled, prompting LDL-C uptake, and reducing LDL-C levels in the serum.
