MTD–CoMSIA modelling of HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors [PDF]
The 3D quantitative structure–activity relationship for a series of hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitors based on the pyrrolylethyl-tetrahydropyranone scaffold was examined using the Minimal Topological Difference (MTD) method and ...

Molecular Dynamic Simulation of Hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA Reductase Inhibitors from Gnetum gnemon L. Seed Extract [PDF]
Objective: Gnetum gnemon L. (melinjo) seed extract contained trans-resveratrol which has been shown to inhibit hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA (HMG-CoA) reductase. Therefore it has a potent activity for lowering blood cholesterol. This study was carried out to determine the molecular dynamics simulation of HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors from Gnetum gnemon L ...

Chemoembolization combined with pravastatin improves survival in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma [PDF]
BACKGROUND/AIMS: Pravastatin, a 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase inhibitor, has been shown to inhibit growth and to induce apoptosis in human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells.

Effects of statin use on serum creatinine phosphokinase levels in normal thyroid function [PDF]
Background/Aims Statins are common lipid-lowering agents used in dyslipidemia. However, they increase serum creatinine phosphokinase (CPK) levels. Currently, there are no studies on the effect of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) levels on CPK levels ...

Evaluating early administration of the hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA reductase inhibitor simvastatin in the prevention and treatment of delirium in critically ill ventilated patients (MoDUS trial): study protocol for a randomized controlled trial [PDF]
The incidence of delirium in ventilated patients is estimated at up to 82%, and it is associated with longer intensive care and hospital stays, and long-term cognitive impairment and mortality. The pathophysiology of delirium has been linked with inflammation and neuronal apoptosis.
