Purification of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase.
The enzyme 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme agarose, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, and aldolA reductase from human liver was purified to homogeneity. ase were from Sigma Chemical co.; agarose-hexaneHMG-CoA was from P-L Biochemicals; bovine serum Electrophoresis of the purified human enzyme on non-denaturing gels revealed a single protein-staining band that co-migrated with reductase act...
متن کاملEfficacy of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase inhibitors for prevention of stroke.
OBJECTIVE To determine if 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitors (statins) are effective in preventing fatal and nonfatal strokes in patients at increased risk of coronary artery disease. DESIGN Meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials. Clinical trials were identified by a computerized search of MEDLINE (1983 to June 1996), by an assessment of the bibliograp...
متن کاملPleiotropic effects of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme a reductase inhibitors.
The 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase inhibitors or statins are potent inhibitors of cholesterol biosynthesis. Several large clinical trials have demonstrated the beneficial effects of statins in the primary and secondary prevention of coronary heart disease. However, the overall clinical benefits observed with statin therapy appear to be greater than what might be expected from c...
متن کاملVaricose Remodeling of Veins Is Suppressed by 3-Hydroxy-3-Methylglutaryl Coenzyme A Reductase Inhibitors.
BACKGROUND Despite the high prevalence of chronic venous insufficiency and varicose veins in the Western world, suitable pharmaceutical therapies for these venous diseases have not been explored to date. In this context, we recently reported that a chronic increase in venous wall stress or biomechanical stretch is sufficient to cause development of varicose veins through the activation of the t...
متن کاملPharmacokinetic interactions between nelfinavir and 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase inhibitors atorvastatin and simvastatin.
3-Hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitors are effective agents in lowering cholesterol and triglycerides and are being used by human immunodeficiency virus-positive patients to treat the lipid elevation that may be associated with antiretroviral therapy. Many HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors and protease inhibitors are metabolized by the same cytochrome P450 enzyme 3A4 (C...
