Biological Activity

Description	Atorvastatin is a lipid lowering agent. It is a competitive inhibitor of hydroxymethylglutaryl-coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase, the rate-determining enzyme in cholesterol biosynthesis via the mevalonate pathway. Atorvastatin activates autophagy.
In vitro	Atorvastatin, one of the statins, inhibits the c-Myc pathway in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) cells, demonstrating that c-Myc is a target of statins.^[1]
In vivo	ATV-Exos activates AKT/eNOS signaling pathway to augment the angiogenesis of endothelial cells via upregulating miR-211-3p, thereby resulting in accelerated wound regeneration of the diabetic rats.^[2]

Protocol (from reference)

Cell Assay:^{^[1]}	Cell lines murine CML-KLS⁺ cells, OP-9 stromal cells Concentrations 2 μM Incubation Time 3 days Method CML cKit+Lineage Sca1+ (KLS) cells are isolated from CML mice. Thereafter, the effect of statins on the colony-forming capacity of CML-KLS cells is determined. Freshly isolated CML-KLS cells are co-cultured with OP-9 stromal cells in the presence of IM (1 M), DA (0.5 M), and rosuvastatin (2 M) or atorvastatin (2 M) for 72 h. Thereafter, the cells are washed with PBS and transferred to semi-solid medium. The number of colonies is counted under the microscope.
