Since inhibitors of HMG-CoA reductase lower plasma triglycerides rather than cholesterol in rats, we compared the triglyceride-lowering activity of lovastatin in rats to that of atorvastatin, a more potent synthetic inhibitor, prior to evaluating these drugs in established animal models in which low density lipoproteins (LDL) rather than high density lipoproteins (HDL) are the major transporters of...
Oxidized low density lipoprotein (oxLDL) is known to be toxic to a variety of cell types, but relatively little is known about the toxic effects of oxLDL on vascular smooth muscle cells (SMC). We found that LDL oxidized by incubation with 5 μM cupric ions was toxic to cultured porcine SMC when administered at concentrations of 25 μg protein/ml and higher. The toxicity was demonstrated whether cells...
