The aging process significantly contributes to human disease, and as worldwide life expectancy increases, addressing the challenges of aging and age-related cardiovascular diseases is becoming increasingly urgent. Vascular aging is a key link between aging and the development of age-related diseases. Recent studies indicate that proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9), a type of protein involved in the metabolism of lipids, is crucial in modulating vascular aging by affecting the physiological functioning of vascular cells. PCSK9 is linked to lipid metabolism and chronic inflammation and is involved in regulating senescence-related activities, including migration, proliferation, apoptosis, and differentiation. These factors contribute to the aging of vascular cells and age-related vascular diseases, including atherosclerosis, hypertension, coronary artery disease, and cerebrovascular diseases. Given its involvement in these processes, this article provides a comprehensive summary of PCSK9's regulatory functions in vascular aging, highlighting potential therapeutic targets for combating age-related cardiovascular diseases.
