SMILES: CC[C@H](C)C(O[C@H]1CCC=C2C=C[C@H](C)[C@H](CC[C@@H]3C[C@@H](O)CC(O3)=O)[C@@]12[H])=O
Biological Activity: Mevastatin (Compactin) is a first HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor that belongs to the statins class. Mevastatin is a lipid-lowering agent, and induces apoptosis, arrests cancer cells in G0/G1 phase. Mevastatin also increases endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) mRNA and protein levels. Mevastatin has antitumor activity and has the potential for cardiovascular diseases treatment[1][2][3].
