Home Metabolism HMG-CoA Reductase inhibitor - Autophagy activator Atorvastatin For research use only.

Atorvastatin

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.

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
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]
Cell Research 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.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such
as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.
