Expression and localization of NPC2, IGFBP7, and THBS1 in aortic tissues. (A) Protein levels of THBS1, IGFBP7, and NPC2 in aortic tissues of NVDCs and those of three different stages (Stages A, B, and C) of TAAA patients were determined by western blot analysis. ACTB was used as an internal control. Arrows indicate the predicted positions of THBS1 (129 kDa), IGFBP7 (29 kDa), NPC2 (17 kDa), and ACTB (42 kDa), respectively. Whole gel images are presented in Supplementary Fig. 2. (B) Immunohistochemical analyses of NPC2, IGFBP7, and THBS1 (first, second, and third row, respectively); Staining data for normal aortas of NVDCs are shown in a, e, and i of the left column, while those of TAAAs are shown in b-d of the first, f-h of the second, and j-l of the third rows. Arrows in d indicate NPC2-positive foam cells. Arrows in f, g, and h indicate IGFBP7-positive foam cells, endothelial cells, and smooth muscle cells, respectively. Arrowheads in g indicate IGFBP7-positive smooth muscle cells. The asterisks in e and g indicate the lumenal region. NVDC, non-vascular disease control; TAAA, thoracic atherosclerotic aortic aneurysm.

Biological function summary
NPC2 protein facilitates the transfer of cholesterol from lysosomes to other parts of the cell. It operates in tandem with its partner protein Niemann Pick C1 (NPC1) to mediate the egress of cholesterol. The NPC2 protein docks to NPC1 within the lysosomal membrane forming an essential complex in lipid transport. This function is pivotal for the maintenance of cellular cholesterol homeostasis influencing various cellular and systemic functions linked to cholesterol metabolism.
Pathways
NPC2 protein participates prominently in the cholesterol efflux pathways. It associates with the NPC1 protein to regulate the movement of cholesterol from the lysosomal membrane to cytoplasmic areas where it can be utilized or stored. This pathway links NPC2 to significant biological processes like the homeostasis of lipoprotein-derived cholesterol influencing the SREBP pathway which governs lipid synthesis and uptake. Such interactions highlight NPC2's involvement in regulating cellular lipid balance.
