Hepatic mRNA levels for the LDL receptor and HMG-CoA reductase show coordinate regulation in vivo.
A sensitive solution hybridization assay using autologous cRNA probes was developed with the aim to study the simultaneous regulation of hepatic mRNA levels, on a quantitative basis, for the LDL receptor (LDLr), HMG-CoA reductase, and cholesterol 7 alpha-

Quantification of Urinary Mevalonic Acid as a Biomarker of HMG-CoA Reductase Activity by a Novel Translational LC-MS/MS Method [PDF]
Background: Mevalonic acid (MVA), as a product of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase, represents a potential multipurpose biomarker in health and disease. A translational urinary MVA quantification method was developed, validated and used to
