Abstract
Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) is a therapeutic target for dyslipidemia and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Two recent studies published by Fang et al.1 and Zhang et al.2 in Cell Reports Medicine and Cell Reports, respectively, show the efficacy of peptide vaccines in eliciting an antibody response against PCSK9 and reducing plasma cholesterol levels.

期刊介绍：
Cell Reports Medicine is an esteemed open-access journal by Cell Press that publishes groundbreaking research in translational and clinical biomedical sciences, influencing human health and medicine.
Our journal ensures wide visibility and accessibility, reaching scientists and clinicians across various medical disciplines. We publish original research that spans from intriguing human biology concepts to all aspects of clinical work. We encourage submissions that introduce innovative ideas, forging new paths in clinical research and practice. We also welcome studies that provide vital information, enhancing our understanding of current standards of care in diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis. This encompasses translational studies, clinical trials (including long-term follow-ups), genomics, biomarker discovery, and technological advancements that contribute to diagnostics, treatment, and healthcare. Additionally, studies based on vertebrate model organisms are within the scope of the journal, as long as they directly relate to human health and disease.
