Abstract
Background: It has been reported that statins therapy can up-regulate PSCK9 expression, which might be associated with the “6% rule” of statins. Additionally, previous data indicated that the extended-release statin could greatly reduce the exposure of statin in circulation. However, whether extended-release statin has less effect on serum PCSK9 level is completely unknown. Keywords: Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9, extended-releasing fluvastatin, immediate-releasing fluvastatin, LDL-C, PCSK9, cardiovascular disease.
