Inclisiran (ALN-PCSsc) is a double-stranded small interfering RNA (siRNA) molecule that inhibits the transcription of PCSK-9. Inclisiran can be used for hyperlipidemia and cardiovascular disease (CVD) research.
In Vitro
Inclisiran is a double-stranded small RNA molecule that works by blocking the transcription of proprotein convertase subtilisin kexin 9 (PCSK-9), leading to a reduction of PCSK-9 levels in the hepatocytes, resulting in an increased expression of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) receptors in the hepatocyte membrane and, as a consequence, it reduces the circulating levels of LDL cholesterol (LDL-C). MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
