PCSK9 does not have an effect on hepatic LRP1 degradation in WT mice.
“although PCSK9 does not have an effect on hepatic LRP1 degradation in WT mice (17,37,38)”
From The hepatic WASH complex is required for efficient plasma LDL and HDL cholesterol clearance (2019) · cites this paper as [37]
The Results section (‘PCSK9-mediated LDLR Degradation in the Liver Does Not Require LRP1’) reports that PCSK9 infusion did not affect hepatic LRP1 levels in WT mice, and the Discussion reiterates this finding. The paper reports protein levels, not a direct measurement of LRP1 degradation, so the claim is more specific than the evidence. (LLM, conf=0.84)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredA role for PCSK9 in hepatic LRP1 degradation in WT mice or in hepatic COMMD1-deficient mice could not be confirmed.
“However, we and others could not confirm a role for PCSK9 in hepatic LRP1 degradation in WT mice, nor in hepatic COMMD1-deficient mice (17,37,38).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
