Navigating the cholesterol maze: Key insights on use of statins in neurodegenerative disorders
The graphical abstract encapsulates the dual neuroprotective mechanisms of statins in neurodegenerative diseases, highlighting both cholesterol‐dependent and cholesterol‐independent pathways. By inhibiting 3‐hydroxy‐3‐methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG‐CoA) reductase, statins reduce cholesterol synthesis, leading to altered lipid raft structures that ...

HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors induce apoptosis in mouse proximal tubular cells in primary culture [PDF]
HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors induce apoptosis in mouse proximal tubular cells in primary culture. Renal cyst formation in polycystic diseases or after nephron reduction is attributed to enhanced tubular cell proliferation with unbalanced cell death.

Secondary Dyslipidemia In Obese Children - Is There Evidence For Pharmacological Treatment?
Background: Long-term safety, effectiveness and criteria for treatment with statins in children are still unclear in clinical practice. There is very limited evidence for the use of medication to treat children with dyslipidemia secondary to obesity who ...
