Cholesterol
• Critical substrate for the body:– Fundamental building block of steroid
hormones
– Essential for building cell membranes, the myelin sheath, and the brain
– Core component of bile salts, which helps in digest dietary fats

Lipoproteins• There are several
different lipoproteins:
– Low-density lipoprotein (LDL)
– Very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL)
– High-density lipoprotein (HDL)

HMG-CoA Reductase Inhibitors• Also referred to as statins• MOA—inhibit enzyme that causes
cholesterol synthesis
• IND—adjunct to dietary treatment to decrease total serum and LDL cholesterol:– Reduce LDL level up to 30%– Raise HDL level up to 20%
29-21
![Page 22: Hypolipidemic Drugs and plasma expanders Dr. Rishi Pal Assistant Prof. Deptt. of Pharmacology](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061413/56649f485503460f94c6a104/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
HMG-CoA Reductase Inhibitors• An early, very important step in this process is
the conversion of acetyl-CoA molecules into HMG-CoA, which is then converted to mevalonic acid by HMG-CoA reductase. Mevalonic acid is a rate-limiting pivotal step in steroid and cholesterol biosynthesis
• The liver makes two-thirds of the daily cholesterol requirement.

HMG-CoA Reductase Inhibitor• All of the statins reduce LDL up to 30 percent. When a
greater reduction of LDL is required, simvastatin (Zocor), atorvastatin (Lipitor), and rosuvastatin (Crestor) reduce more than 45 percent; in fact, rosuvastatin and atorvastatin have been demonstrated to reduce up to 60 percent.
• All of the statins raise the HDL level up to 20 percent. Again, simvastatin (Zocor), atorvastatin (Lipitor), and rosuvastatin (Crestor) increase HDL more than 30 percent.
