BREAKING NEWS The 2024 #NobelPrize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded to Victor Ambros and Gary Ruvkun for the discovery of microRNA and its role in post-transcriptional gene regulation.

The world of OxPL @OxPL_apoB has expanded to many areas beyond Lp(a). Inhibiting OxPL with our E06 antibody discovered @UCSanDiego @UCSDCardiology in various models improves aortic stenosis, ischemia/reperfusion injury, MASH, metabolic disorders CNS DZ, bone metabolism, arthritis/joint disease, pain syndromes, pulmonary fibrosis, and now... asthma. Congrats to Andre Halyako and @AHRavandi for the great study. Why such broad effects? Because anywhere there is oxidation, it begets inflammation, and E06 attenuates the pro-inflammatory effects. It's time to get it to the clinic!

My fellow Democrats, I have decided not to accept the nomination and to focus all my energies on my duties as President for the remainder of my term. My very first decision as the party nominee in 2020 was to pick Kamala Harris as my Vice President. And it’s been the best decision I’ve made. Today I want to offer my full support and endorsement for Kamala to be the nominee of our party this year. Democrats — it’s time to come together and beat Trump. Let’s do this.

Dr Akiro Endo, discoverer of mevastatin that opened the way for one of the most effective methods to reduce risk of heart attack/stroke, died today at age 90. Impact to human health benefits is incalculable, it is estimated 200,000,000 people are on statins. You can read more details on statins in my Sat Morning Class #6. apple.news/AA731AUNqTF2VNlZ4…

RT @EricTopol: SGLT2 drugs reduce mortality but we didn't know why. Maybe because they are senolytic, enhancing the clearance of senescent…

#LDL is the big round particle and is “bad cholesterol” #Lp(a) is the big tail thingy and it is 5 times worse than LDL It’s “Superbad cholesterol” #cmgsays #NLA24

Very happy to present the poster of our working progress on the role of oxidized phospholipids on the plaque progression during cholesterol cycling model during the NYU School of Medicine Research Day!

Cincinnati researchers highlight HDL's roles beyond fat transport – immune system modulation via T-cell interactions @LauraMelAt @DavidsonLabUC1 ahajrnls.org/3wGiTl3

Listening to @raphaels7 and Tucker Goodrich talk about seed oils. Up to where Tucker is making a case that oxLDL is important. He points to Boren et al (image below) Isn’t it oxidisation of LDL particles occur INSIDE the artery wall that’s the problem? Therefore is an assay of serum LDL-C inappropriate? ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/article…
