EFFICACY AND SAFETY OF THERAPY WITH ATORVASTATIN IN HIGH DOSES

Рациональная фармакотерапия в кардиологии, 2016
Large epidemiological trails shown that hypercholesterolemia is one of the main risk factor of ischemic heart disease (IHD). Correction of the hypercholesterolemia with GmGKoA reductase inhibitors (statins) essentially reduces IHD morbidity and mortality.

The nitty‐gritty of vascular permeability in cancer: targeting blood endothelium to control metastases

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Blood vascular permeability is a hallmark of cancer and acts as an active driver of metastatic dissemination. Metastasis accounts for the vast majority of cancer deaths, yet most work has focussed on tumour‐intrinsic traits and angiogenesis, while the specific contribution of endothelial barrier regulation to intravasation and extravasation remains ...

Mechanism of inhibitory effect of atorvastatin on resistin expression induced by tumor necrosis factor-α in macrophages

Journal of Biomedical Science, 2009
Atorvastatin has been shown to reduce resistin expression in macrophages after pro-inflammatory stimulation. However, the mechanism of reducing resistin expression by atorvastatin is not known. Therefore, we sought to investigate the molecular mechanisms
