Phosphatidylethanolamine binding protein 1 in vacular endothelial cell autophagy and atherosclerosis

•  The enzyme phosphatidylcholine‐specific phospholipase C (PC‐PLC) participates in atherosclerosis development and may negatively regulate autophagy. •  Phosphatidylethanolamine binding protein 1 (PEBP1) represents a novel effector of signal transduction pathways that control cellular growth, motility, apoptosis, genomic integrity, and therapeutic resistance. •  The disruption of PEBP1 was reported to associate with a wide range of diseases, such as cancer, pancreatitis, and Alzheimer's disease, making it a potential target for disease therapy. However, the roles of PEBP1 in vascular endothelial cell (VEC) autophagy and arteriosclerosis are not clear. •  Here we report that PEBP1 interacts with PC‐PLC and positively regulates PC‐PLC activity, while both PEBP1 and PC‐PLC negatively regulate VEC autophagy. •  The PEBP1 level is elevated during the development of atherosclerosis, and the PC‐PLC inhibitor D609 significantly decreases the upregulated PEBP1 level in apolipoprotein E−/− mice, suggesting that PEBP1 may be a potential diagnostic indicator for atherosclerosis.
