Biological Activity

Description Pravastatin sodium (CS-514) is an HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor against sterol synthesis with IC50 of 5.6 μM.
Targets
HMG-CoA reductase [1]
5.6 μM
In vitro
In vitro Pravastatin-Na at 10 μM inhibits the sterol synthesis at a level greater than 50% in PBMC. [1] Pravastatin produces relaxation of isolated aortic rings, with maximum vasorelaxations of 62.8% at 10 μM and latency of ~8 min. Pravastatin (< 10 μM) stimulates NOS activity and NO release within 10 min in cultured bovine aortic endothelial cells. L-arginine potentiates NO production in response to Pravastatin (< 10 μM) in cultured bovine aortic endothelial cells. [2] Pravastatin results in a dose-dependent inhibition of macrophage cholesterol synthesis in human monocyte derived macrophages(HMDM), mouse peritoneal macrophages (MPM) and a J-774 A.1 macrophagelike cell lines. Small concentrations of pravastatin (< 0.19 μg/mL) increases the cellular cholesterol esterification rate after incubation with LDL, but higher concentrations (< 100 μg/mL) results in an inhibition of the esterification. [3] Pravastatin (< 0.5 mM) decreases Rho/ROCK pathway activity in human colon and ileum explants, which leads to decreased CCN2 mRNA levels. Pravastatin (<1 mM) also induces CCN2 inhibition in primary human smooth muscle cells. Pravastatin (< 0.5 mM) decreases type I collagen and fibronectin mRNA levels in both human colon and ileum explants and primary human smooth muscle cells. [4]
In Vivo
In vivo Pravastatin (40 mg, single dose) causes a reduction in cholesterol synthesis in human monocyte derived macrophages by 62% in healthy subjects and 47% in hypercholesterolaemic patients. Pravastatin (40 mg/day, 8 weeks) results in a 55% inhibition of cholesterol synthesis and a 57% increase in LDL degradation in hypercholesterolaemic patients. [3] Pravastatin (30 mg/kg/d) results in decreased length of the dystrophic lesions by 34% and recovery of muscular structure in Male Wistar rats receiving irradiation, associated with decreased CCN2 level.

Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO ( Master liquid concentration mg/mL, Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug. )

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.
