Effects of pravastatin, a hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA reductase inhibitor, on two human tumour cell lines

Journal of Cancer Research and Clinical Oncology, 1995
Competitive inhibitors of 3-hydroxy-3-methyl-glutaryl-coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase are currently used to treat patients with hypercholesterolaemia. These inhibitors affect not only cholesterol biosynthesis, but also the production of non-steroidal mevalonate derivatives, that are involved in a number of growth-regulatory processes.

Hydroxymethylglutaryl–CoA reductase inhibitor inhibits induction of nitric oxide synthase in 3T3–L1 preadipocytes

Life Sciences, 2008
Preadipocytes are considered to play a role in adipose tissue inflammation in obesity. The purpose of this study was to determine whether hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA reductase inhibitor (statin) modulates the nitric oxide (NO) production via inducible NO synthase (iNOS) in preadipocytes.

The effect of substrates and competitive inhibitors on the phosphatase-dependent activation of hepatic hydroxymethylglutaryl CoA reductase

Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 1986
Previous studies have demonstrated that the in vitro activation of microsomal hepatic hydroxymethylglutaryl (HMG) CoA reductase by dephosphorylation is inhibited by HMG CoA or NADPH, the substrates of HMG CoA reductase (13). In the present study the effect of three competitive inhibitors of HMG CoA reductase on the activation of HMG CoA reductase was ...

Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) and HydroxyMethylGlutaryl-CoA (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitors in the forefront of pharmacology of endothelium.

Pharmacological reports : PR, 2010
Healthy endothelium is essential for undisturbed functioning of the cardiovascular system, while endothelial dysfunction leads to its various pathologies. For example endothelial dysfunction precedes clinical symptoms of atherothrombosis, such as acute coronary syndrome, ischemic stroke, peripheral arterial disease or diabetic microangiopathies e.g ...

Serum levels of lipoprotein(a) and homocysteine in patients on hemodialysis who take hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA reductase inhibitors, vitamin B6, and folic acid.

Iranian journal of kidney diseases, 2009
High serum levels of lipoprotein(a) and homocysteine are risk factors of cardiovascular disease which are prevalent in patients on hemodialysis. Controversy exists about the effects of hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA reductase inhibitors on serum lipoprotein(a) levels in patients on hemodialysis.

Effect of hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA reductase inhibitors on low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, interleukin-6, and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein in end-stage renal disease.

Iranian journal of kidney diseases, 2011
INTRODUCTION. This study was conducted to determine the effect of statins on the serum levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDLC), and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (HSCPR). MATERIALS AND METHODS. This randomized clinical trial was carried out on 95 hemodialysis patients divided into three groups of atorvastatin ...

The Natural Products as Hydroxymethylglutaryl-Coa Reductase Inhibitors

High cholesterol and triglyceride levels are mainly related to further generation of life-threating metabolism disorders including cardiovascular system diseases. Therefore, hypercholesterolemia (i.e., also referred to as hyperlipoproteinemia) is a serious disease state, which must be controlled.
