Abstract

The effect of fluvastatin sodium (XU62-320), a new type of inhibitor of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A, on the induction of LDL receptor in the human liver-derived cell line HepG2 was investigated. Fluvastatin sodium produced marked inhibition of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase activity and induction of LDL receptor on HepG2 cells at a concentration of 0.1-1.0 microM. These results suggest that fluvastatin sodium has potential for use as a strong plasma cholesterol-lowering drug.
