Episode notes

When an APOB containing lipoprotein binds to an LDL receptor and becomes internalized into the liver, the whole thing comes in. Instead of this PCSK9 protein breaking that receptor down, you block that and it gets recycled. So that's why when you give someone a PCSK9 inhibitor, their APOB or LDL cholesterol levels go down. LP little A is kind of a subtype of LDL with an extra protein on it that makes it particularly thrombotic, arthrogenic.
