Atorvastatin hemicalcium

SKU: orb1226500

Description

A competitive inhibitor of HMG-CoA reductase (HMGCR) that acts as a lipid-lowering agent for prevention of events associated with cardiovascular disease.Dyslipidemia Approved(In Vitro):Atorvastatin treatment decreases apoptosis of myocardial cells by down-regulating GRP78, caspase-12 and CHOP expression in myocardial cells after myocardial infarction, and the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is activated in response to heart failure and angiotensin II (Ang II) stimulation.(In Vivo):Atorvastatin (20-30 mg/kg; oral gavage; once a day; for 28 days; ApoE / mice) treatment significantly reduces endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress signaling proteins, the number of apoptotic cells, and the activation of Caspase12 and Bax in the Ang II-induced ApoE-/- mice. Proinflammatory cytokines such as IL-6, IL-8, IL-1β are all remarkably inhibited after Atorvastatin treatment.

Bioactivity

−

In Vivo

Atorvastatin (20-30 mg/kg; oral gavage; once a day; for 28 days; ApoE / mice) treatment significantly reduces endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress signaling proteins, the number of apoptotic cells, and the activation of Caspase12 and Bax in the Ang II-induced ApoE-/-mice. Proinflammatory cytokines such as IL-6, IL-8, IL-1β are all remarkably inhibited after Atorvastatin treatment. Animal model: Forty 8-week-old ApoE / mice induced with angiotensin II (Ang II). Dosage: 20 mg/kg, 30 mg/kg. Administration: Oral gavage; once a day; for 28 days. Result: Significantly reduced ER stress signaling proteins, the number of apoptotic cells, and the activation of Caspase12 and Bax in the Ang II-induced ApoE / mice. Proinflammatory cytokines such as IL-6, IL-8, IL-1β were all remarkably inhibited.
