Atorvastatin (CI-981; CI981; Tozalip; Torvast; Cardyl; liptonorm) is an approved blockbuster drug of the statin class used as an LDL
cholesterol-lowering/hypolipidemic medication. It act as a potent and
selective inhibitor of HMG-CoA reductase.
Targets |
HMG-CoA reductase

ln Vitro |
By downregulating the expression of GRP78, caspase-12, and CHOP in cardiomyocytes during myocardial infarction, atorvastatin treatment lowers cardiomyocyte apoptosis. Additionally, it stimulates the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) in response to heart failure and angiotensin II (Ang II) stimulation. ) tension. 4].
|
ln Vivo |
Treatment with atorvastatin (20–30 mg/kg; oral gavage; once daily; for 28 days; ApoE−/− mice) markedly decreased the amount of apoptotic cells, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress signaling proteins, and Caspase12 and Caspase12 activation. Bax in ApoE-/- mice triggered by Ang II. Following atorvastatin treatment, pro-inflammatory cytokines such IL-6, IL-8, and IL-1β were markedly suppressed [5].

Enzyme Assay |
The HMG-CoA reductase assay kit from Sigma-Aldrich (St. Louis, MO, USA) with the catalytic domain of the human enzyme (recombinant GST fusion protein expressed in E. coli) was used, under conditions recommended by the manufacturer, to identify the most effective fraction of plant extract. The concentration of the purified human enzyme stock solution (Sigma) was 0.52–0.85 mg protein/mL. Reference statin drug pravastatin (from Sigma) was used as positive control. To characterize HMG-CoA reductase inhibition under defined assay conditions, reactions containing 4 μL of NADPH (to obtain a final concentration of 400 μM) and 12 μL of HMG-CoA substrate (to obtain a final concentration of 400 μM) in a final volume of 0.2 mL of 100 mM potassium phosphate buffer, pH 7.4 (containing 120 mM KCl, 1 mM EDTA, and 5 mM DTT), were initiated (time 0) by the addition of 2 μL of the catalytic domain of human recombinant HMG-CoA reductase and incubated in Eppendorf BioSpectrometer (equipped with thermostatically controlled cell holder) at 37°C in the presence or absence (control) of 1 μL aliquots of drugs dissolved in DMSO. The rates of NADPH consumed were monitored every 20 sec for up to 15 min by scanning spectrophotometrically [7].

Cell Assay |
Cell proliferation assays were performed essentially as described previously. Briefly, SV-SMC from 5 different patients were seeded into 24-well cell culture plates at a density of 1 × 104 cells per well in full growth medium. Cells were incubated overnight and then quiesced in serum free medium for 3 days before transfer to full growth medium (10% FCS) containing 5 different statins at a range of concentrations. All statins were tested on cells from each individual patient. Medium and drugs were replaced after 2 days, and viable cell numbers were determined in triplicate wells after 4 days using Trypan Blue and a hemocytometer. The increase in cell number was calculated by subtracting the starting cell number (day 0) from the final cell number (day 4). Data were then normalized to control values (no statin) to correct for differences in proliferation rates between cells from different patients [2].

Animal Protocol |
Animal/Disease Models: 40 8weeks old ApoE−/− mice, angiotensin II (Ang II) induced [5]
Doses: 20 mg/kg, 30 mg/kg Route of Administration: po (oral gavage); one time/day; continuous 28-day Experimental Results: Endoplasmic reticulum stress signaling proteins, the number of apoptotic cells, and the activation of Caspase12 and Bax were Dramatically diminished in Ang II-induced ApoE−/− mice. Pro-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-6, IL-8, and IL-1β were Dramatically inhibited. |

Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (4.48 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (4.48 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of corn oil and mix evenly.  (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.) |

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
