Liver-specific ATP-citrate lyase inhibition by bempedoic acid decreases LDL-C and attenuates atherosclerosis

Statins are lipid-lowering drugs that prevent cardiovascular disease but tolerability is limited by severe side effects in muscles. Here the authors elucidate a liver-specific activation mechanism for bempedoic acid, a novel cholesterol-lowering drug, and show how it effectively reduces LDL-C and at...
