CTRP13 attenuates atherosclerosis by inhibiting endothelial cell ferroptosis via activating GCH1

C1q/TNF-related protein 13 (CTRP13) is a secreted adipokine that has been shown to play an important role in a variety of cardiovascular diseases. However, the effect of CTRP13 on ferroptosis of endothelial cells and its underlying mechanism remain unclear. In the present study, we analyzed the effects of CTRP13 on endothelial dysfunction in high-lipid-induced ApoE
