Simvastatin Restores Uteroplacental Hemodynamics and Trophoblast Function in Obstetric Antiphospholipid Syndrome in a Placenta‐on‐a‐Chip Model

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Simvastatin mitigates placental hypoperfusion in OAPS by ameliorating abnormal uteromaternal hemodynamics and enhancing trophoblast invasion via optimized endothelial cell interactions under pathological shear stress, as evidenced by results from a placenta‐on‐a‐chip platform.

Improved methods for the study of hepatic HMG CoA reductase: one-step isolation of mevalonolactone and rapid preparation of endoplasmic reticulum

Journal of Lipid Research, 1976
Two new methods are described for the study of hepatic 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG CoA) reductase. (1) Endoplasmic reticulum was rapidly prepared by diluting a 10,000 g supernatant with buffer containing 8 mM calcium chloride. The yield of

Biomimetic Copper‐Doped Nano‐Aluminum Adjuvant Potentiates Therapy in Chemoresistant Acute Myeloid Leukemia

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
We developed a novel copper‐doped aluminum nano‐adjuvant (CuNA) to overcome cytarabine resistance in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). CuNA effectively sensitizes drug‐resistant AML cells to cytarabine by inducing mitochondrial dysfunction and inhibiting HMGCR/GPX4 to amplify ferroptosis.

Differing effects of cholesterol and taurocholate on steady state hepatic HMG-CoA reductase and cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase activities and mRNA levels in the rat.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1992
We investigated the effects of cholesterol, cholestyramine, and taurocholate feeding on steady state specific activities and mRNA levels of hepatic 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl (HMG)-CoA reductase and cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase in the rat ...

Patients on statins with elevated transaminases: Frequency of follow‐up creatine kinase testing and gastroenterology referral

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To quantify how often creatine kinase (CK) is measured after newly elevated aminotransferases in statin users, and whether absent CK data are associated with gastroenterology (GI) referrals. Methods Retrospective chart review of adult outpatients on statins with a first alanine/aspartate aminotransferase (ALT/AST) elevation during a 5 ...

Control of sterol synthesis and of hydroxymethylglutaryl CoA reductase in skin fibroblasts grown from patients with homozygous type II hyperlipoproteinemia

Journal of Lipid Research, 1975
In skin fibroblasts grown from four children with a homozygous form of type II hyperlipoproteinemia, the feedback control of sterol synthesis and the inhibitory effect on hydroxymethylglutaryl (HMG) CoA reductase activity by serum or low density ...

The role of statin drugs in combating cardiovascular diseases –A review [PDF]

, 2011
Statins clearly confer substantial benefit in people with established cardiovascular (CV) disease. Increased cholesterol levels have been associated with cardiovascular diseases (CVD), and statins are therefore used in the prevention of these diseases ...

A Case of Statin-Associated Autoimmune Myopathy. [PDF]

, 2017
A 70-year-old previously independent man developed progressive proximal leg weakness resulting in a fall at home suffering traumatic brain injury. He was prescribed a statin medication two years prior, but this was discontinued on admission to the ...

Denosumab Offers Relatively Lower Initial Protection Against Osteoporotic Vertebral Fractures in Treatment‐Naive Patients Compared With Zoledronate

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
We compared the initial efficacy of denosumab (Dmab) and zoledronate (ZOL) in treatment‐naive patients with osteoporosis. This cohort study, based on TriNetX data, evaluated the risks of fractures and mortality using Kaplan–Meier survival analyses, with hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs).

Regulation of gene expression and synthesis and degradation of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase by micellar cholesterolin CaCo-2 cells.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1991
To investigate whether, and by what mechanisms, luminal (dietary) cholesterol regulates cholesterol synthesis in human intestinal cells, HMG-CoA reductase activity, gene expression, synthesis, and degradation were investigated in CaCo-2 cells exposed to ...
