  3. Mevalonic acid

Mevalonic acid (MVA) is a precursor substance of the mevalonate pathway, which is essential for cell growth and proliferation. Mevalonic acid is effective in inhibiting Simvastatin (HY-17502)-induced decrease in C2C12 cell viability in vitro. Mevalonic acid can be used in studies of myopathy and heart failure.

The free form of the compound is prone to instability, it is advisable to consider the stable salt form (Mevalonic acid lithium salt) that retains the same biological activity.

    Mice were subjected to the inferior vena cava IVC stasis model for 5 h to evaluate venous thrombosis formation, with subsequent pathological assessment by hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining. The results showed that Mevalonic acid lithium salt (MVA, 500 or 1500 ng/kg; i.v.) treatment markedly increased both thrombus weight.

    Mice were administered injections of either 500 ng/kg Mevalonic acid lithium salt (MVA). On 24 h after transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAO), typical images of coronal brain sections stained with 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC). The results showed that MVA led to a significant increase in infarct volume.

    제품 설명

    Mevalonic acid (MVA) is a precursor substance of the mevalonate pathway, which is essential for cell growth and proliferation. Mevalonic acid is effective in inhibiting Simvastatin (HY-17502)-induced decrease in C2C12 cell viability in vitro. Mevalonic acid can be used in studies of myopathy and heart failure[1][2].

    In Vitro

    Mevalonic acid (80, 90, 100, 110 μM; 72 h) shows prevention of simvastatin-induced loss of viability of C2C12myotube cells in vitro[1].

    MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

    Cell Viability Assay[1]

    Help & FAQs
    • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

      Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
