Biological Activity

Description Fluvastatin Sodium inhibits HMG-CoA reductase activity with IC50 of 8 nM in a cell-free assay.
Targets
HMG-CoA reductase [1]
(Cell-free assay)
8 nM
In vitro

Fluvastatin markedly inhibits the formation of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances in iron (II)-supported peroxidation of liposomes with IC50 of 12 μM. Fluvastatin ranging from 1 μM to 100 μM inhibits peroxyl radical-mediated peroxidation of liposomes induced by water-soluble and lipid-soluble radical generators, 2,2'-azobis (2-amidinopropane) dihydro-chloride and 2,2'-azobis (2,4-dimethylvaleronitrile), respectively. [2] Fluvastatin (4 mM) and its metabolites shows superoxide anion scavenging activity in the hypoxanthine-xanthine oxidase system and a strong scavenging effect on the hydroxyl radical produced from Fenton's reaction. Fluvastatin (8 μM) and its metabolites shows protective effects on DNA damage as potent as the reference antioxidants, ascorbic acid, trolox, and probucol in CHL/IU cells. [3] Fluvastatin (100 nM) shows a dose-dependent decrease in Ang II-activated superoxide anion formation in human aortic smooth muscle cells (hASMC). [4]
In vivo

Fluvastatin (10 mg/kg/day) results in a decrease in serum lipids in rabbits feed a 1.5% cholesterol containing diet. Fluvastatin (10 mg/kg/day) significantly lowers the tissue ACE in the aortae in rabbits feed a 1.5% cholesterol containing diet. Fluvastatin (10 mg/kg/day) significantly reverses the suppression of ACh-induced relaxation in rabbits feed a 1.5% cholesterol containing diet. [5]
Features The order of magnitude of inhibition of each drug on the peroxidation was butylated hydroxytoluene > fluvastatin ≥ probucol ≥ pravastatin.
