Keto lovastatin
Keto lovastatin (Monacolin X) is an impurity of Lovastatin (HY-N0504) and also a competitive inhibitor of HMG-CoA reductase. Keto lovastatin exerts its cholesterol-lowering effect by blocking the rate-limiting step of endogenous cholesterol synthesis. Keto lovastatin can be used in research on hypercholesterolemia and atherosclerosis, and can also serve as an impurity reference standard in the research on the production and quality control of Lovastatin.

Biological Activity
제품 설명
In Vitro
Keto lovastatin (Monacolin X) (up to 1000 ng/mL; 2 h) inhibits cholesterol synthesis in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC), human enterocytes, normal human skin fibroblasts, and familial homozygous hypercholesterolemia LDL receptor-deficient human skin fibroblasts, with no significant inhibitory effect on protein synthesis or fatty acid synthesis[2].
Keto lovastatin (up to 1000 ng/mL; 2 h) inhibits cholesterol synthesis in human hepatoma cells HEPG2, and its lactone and ring-opened acid forms exhibit comparable inhibitory activity, with no significant inhibitory effect on protein synthesis or fatty acid synthesis[2].
