STUDYING MOLECULAR MODELLING OF THE CHOLESTEROL ABSORPTION INHIBITOR EZETIMIBE AND EVALUATION OF ITS ANTIBACTERIAL ACTIVITY [PDF]
As is known, ezetimibe is the only drug classified as a cholesterol absorption inhibitor, working by preventing the cholesterol transporter protein Niemann-Pick C1-Like 1 (NPC1L1) from functioning.

ABSTRACT Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of worldwide mortality, often supported by intricate dyslipidemic patterns of high levels of low‐density lipoprotein cholesterol and triacylglycerol. HMG‐CoA reductase inhibitors (statins) and ezetimibe can be used synergistically to treat these pathologies, as they target distinct metabolic ...

Genomic and Sex Contributions to Interindividual Variability in Pitavastatin Bioavailability
ABSTRACT Aim This study investigates pharmacogenetic determinants of pitavastatin disposition using a candidate‐gene approach. Methods In 48 healthy volunteers, 138 variants across 40 genes involved in drug metabolism and transport were analysed to assess their relationship with pitavastatin pharmacokinetics, alongside the influence of sex and ...

Many patients at very-high atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease risk do not reach guideline-recommended targets for LDL-C. There is a lack of data on real-world use of non-statin lipid-lowering therapies (LLT) and little is known on the effectiveness ...

Direct RNA sequencing of primary human valvular interstitial cells (VICs) from non‐calcified control and fibro‐calcific aortic stenosis (AS) valves reveals disease‐associated remodeling of m6A RNA methylation. AS‐derived VICs show an overall increase in detected m6A sites, together with transcript‐specific hyper‐ and hypo‐methylation patterns ...

Cryo-EM structures of NPC1L1 reveal mechanisms of cholesterol transport and ezetimibe inhibition
Details of intestinal sterol absorption and inhibition by cholesterol-lowering drug are uncovered in new protein structures. The intestinal absorption of cholesterol is mediated by a multipass membrane protein, Niemann-Pick C1-Like 1 (NPC1L1), the ...

Nanosecond infrared laser (NIRL) low‐volume sampling combined with shotgun lipidomics uncovers distinct lipidome alterations in oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) of the palatine tonsil. Several lipid species consistently differentiate tumor from healthy tissue, highlighting their potential as diagnostic markers.
