In these patients, LDL particles are smaller due to their high content of esterified cholesterol, and ApoB has a less flexible structure due to its high percentage of rigid alpha-helices. Developing strategies to preserve the structure of ApoB could be a new way to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease in these patients.
Study uncovers how ApoB protein structure drives LDL accumulation and increases cardiovascular risk in familial hypercholesterolemia
A new multicenter study reveals why the structure of the ApoB protein, present in LDL along with the so-called "bad cholesterol," plays a crucial role in the tendency of LDL to accumulate in the arterial walls of patients with familial hypercholesterolemia, thus promoting the formation of atherosclerotic plaques.
