Product Data
Biological target:
Fluvastatin (XU-62-320) inhibits HMG-CoA reductase activity with IC50 of 8 nM in a cell-free assay.
In vitro activity:
Fluvastatin significantly restored H2O2-induced neuronal death in a dose-dependent manner (P < 0.05) and reversed H2O2-induced oxidative stress and damage via restoring mitochondrial function in neuronal cells (P < 0.05). Reference: J Pharm Pharmacol. 2021 Mar 8;73(4):515-521. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33793833/
In vivo activity:
Fluvastatin preconditioning in rats improved left ventricular dysfunction, reduced HMGB1/TLR4/NF-κB expressions, and inhibited cardiomyocyte apoptosis, autophagy, and inflammation reaction. Moreover, treatment with fluvastatin ameliorated myocardial injury by reducing infarct size, causing less damage to cardiac structure, downregulating autophagy-related protein expression and releasing pro-inflammation mediators.
