Description

Pitavastatin Calcium (NK-104 hemicalcium) is a potent hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitor. Pitavastatin Calcium (NK-104 hemicalcium) inhibits cholesterol synthesis from acetic acid with an IC50 of 5.8 nM in HepG2 cells. Pitavastatin Calcium is an efficient hepatocyte low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) receptor inducer. Anti-cancer activity.

Background

Pitavastatin Calcium is a competitive inhibitor of the enzyme HMGCR (HMG-CoA reductase) results in a reduction in LDL cholesterol synthesis. Alternate studies show that pitavastatin can suppress oxygen production in endothelial cells by inhibiting NADPH oxidase. In addition, pitavastatin reduces the expression of eNOS mRNA while increasing the NO dependent response stimulated by acetylcholine and the calcium ionophore, A23187. Furthermore, pitavastatin inhibits the up-regulation of conductance calcium-activated potassium channels by lowering cholesterol levels in cells.
