Sauchinone controls hepatic cholesterol homeostasis by the negative regulation of PCSK9 transcriptional network

Abstract Whole-transcriptome analysis and western blotting of sauchinone-treated HepG2 cells demonstrated that sauchinone regulated genes relevant to cholesterol metabolism and synthesis. In particular, it was found that the expression of proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) was dow...
