HMG-CoA Reductase (HMGCR)

HMG-CoA Reductase (HMGCR) is the rate-limiting enzyme for cholesterol synthesis in the conversion of HMG-CoA to mevalonate. HMGCR is found in eukaryotes and prokaryotes. The phylogenetic analysis has revealed two classes of HMG-CoA reductase, the Class I enzymes of eukaryotes and some archaea and the Class II enzymes of eubacteria and certain other archaea.

Both in eukaryotes and in archaebacteria the enzyme HMGCR is known to catalyze an early reaction unique to isoprenoid biosynthesis. In humans, the HMG-CoA reductase reaction is rate-limiting for the biosynthesis of cholesterol and therefore constitutes a prime target of drugs that reduce serum cholesterol levels.

    Rebaudioside A
    Inhibitor 98.0%
    Rebaudioside A is an orally effective steviol glycoside with high sweetness. Rebaudioside A acts as an inhibitor of α-glucosidase with an IC50 value of 35.01 μg/mL. Rebaudioside A increases the ATP/ADP ratio in β cells in a glucose-dependent manner, thereby inhibiting KATP channels, leading to membrane depolarization, calcium influx, and ultimately stimulating insulin secretion. Rebaudioside A activates the SREBP signaling pathway by inhibiting HMGCR, the rate-limiting enzyme in cholesterol synthesis, resulting in increased expression of LDLR on the cell surface, thus promoting the uptake of LDL-C in the blood. Rebaudioside A can be used for studies on blood glucose and lipid regulation as well as anti-obesity.

Thiolutin effectively suppresses the interaction between BRCC36 and HMGCR, leading to the inhibition of HCC growth. Thiolutin attenuates pyroptosis and NLRP3 inflammasome activation. Thiolutin markedly alleviates renal injury and inflammatory process in IgAN. Thiolutin is an anti-angiogenic compound which can ease Doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity (DOXIC)[1][2][3][4][5].
