Project description:Statins are competitive inhibitors of (3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A) HMG-CoA reductase. The primary mechanism of statins is the lowering of serum cholesterol through inhibiting hepatic cholesterol biosynthesis. Statins exert pleiotropic vasoprotective and atheroprotective effects in the vasculature, with its mechanism of action being incompletely understood.To depict the statin-regulated mRNA,long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) and circular RNA (circRNA) in human endothelial cells, we performed transcriptomic profiling of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) with atorvastatin treatment.Differentially expressed mRNA, lncRNA and circRNA may represent novel therapeutic targets against cardiovascular diseases.

Project description:The statins are a family of inhibitors of the 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase enzyme, which converts acetyl-CoA into mevalonic acid. Since HMG-CoA reductase catalyzes the rate-limiting step in the mevalonate pathway of cholesterol biosynthesis, it was thought that the major clinical benefit of statins was to reduce cholesterol levels in the bloodstream; statins are thus in wide clinical use for the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular disease. Nonetheless, mevalonate is also the precursor of isoprenoid compounds, which are substrates for the post-translational modification of many proteins involved in cell signaling. The blockade of isoprenoid synthesis might explain the pleiotropic effects described for statins in extrahepatic tissues, including inhibition of pathogen infection and anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory activities. We used microarrays to find differentially expressed genes in spontaneous breast tumors from mice treated with lovastatin (Lov) or vehicle (ethanol) as control. Standard single channel experimental design with biological replicates: gene expression signals from 5 treated tumor samples were compared to 5 non-treated tumor samples using Affymetrix GeneChips (MG430 v2.0).

Project description:With particular emphasis on interactions between cholesterol homeostasis and drug metabolism we investigate the transcriptome of human primary hepatocytes treated by two commonly prescribed cholesterol lowering drugs atorvastatin and rosuvastatin and by rifampicin that serves as an outgroup as well as a model substance for induction of nuclear receptor PXR. Expression profiling with Affymetrix whole genome arrays shows that statins induce extensive transcriptome changes.

Project description:Statins lower plasma cholesterol by as much as 50%, thus reducing future cardiovascular events. However, the physiological effects of statins are diverse and not all are related to LDL-C lowering. We performed a small clinical pilot study to assess the impact of statins on lipoprotein-associated proteins in healthy individuals (n=10) with normal LDL-C (<130 mg/dL), who were treated with rosuvastatin (20 mg/day) for 28 days. Proteomic analysis of size-exclusion chromatography isolated LDL, HDL-L (large) and HDL-S (small) fractions and spectral counting was used to compare relative protein detection before and after statin therapy. Significant protein changes were found in each lipoprotein pool and included both increases and decreases in several proteins involved in lipoprotein metabolism, complement regulation and acute phase response. The most dramatic effect of the rosuvastatin treatment was an increase in alpha-1-antirypsin (A1AT) spectral counts associated with HDL-L particles. Quantitative measurement by ELISA confirmed an average 5.7-fold increase in HDL-L associated A1AT. Molecular modeling predictions indicated that the hydrophobic reactive center loop of A1AT, the functional domain responsible for its protease inhibitor activity, is likely involved in its lipid binding and its association with HDL was found to protect A1AT against oxidative inactivation. Cell culture experiments, using J774 macrophages, demonstrated that the association of A1AT with HDL enhances its anti-protease activity, preventing elastase induced production of tumor necrosis factor alpha. In conclusion, we show that statins can significantly alter the protein composition of both LDL and HDL and our studies reveal a novel functional relationship between A1AT and HDL. The upregulation of A1AT on HDL enhances its anti-inflammatory functionality, which may contribute to the non-lipid lowering beneficial effects of statins.

Project description:Statins reduce cardiovascular disease risk by lowering plasma low density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol. To identify novel pathways that modulate statin response, we assessed the influence of simvastatin exposure on expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) associations across the genome in 480 lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCLs). Cell lines were derived blood samples collected ant entry visit from participants in the Cholesterol and Pharmacogenomics (CAP) trial, who underwent a 6 week 40mg/day simvastatin trial. We identified 4590 cis-eQTLS that were independent of treatment status (FDR=1%) and six cis-eQTLS for which there was evidence of an interaction with treatment (FDR=20%). Genotypes and Phenotypes derived from these indivudals are available through dbGaP (Accession Number). eQTL results are available at: http://eqtl.uchicago.edu/cgi=bin/gbrowse/eqtl/ Dataset consists of 960 expression beadarrays (Illumina HumanRef-8v3) representing paired samples derived from 24-hour exposures of 480 lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCLs) to 2 micromolar simvastatin acid or control buffer.

Project description:Abstract: Patients with metabolic syndrome are often prescribed statins to prevent development of 17 cardiovascular disease. Conversely, data on their effects on non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) 18 are lacking. We evaluated these effects by feeding APOE*3-Leiden mice a Western-type diet (WTD) 19 with or without atorvastatin to induce NASH and hepatic fibrosis. Besides the well-known plasma 20 cholesterol lowering (-30%) and anti-atherogenic effects (severe lesion size -48%), atorvastatin sig-21 nificantly reduced hepatic steatosis (-22%), the number of aggregated inflammatory cells in the liver 22 (-80%) and hepatic fibrosis (-92%) compared to WTD-fed mice. Furthermore, atorvastatin-treated 23 mice showed less immunohistochemically stained area of inflammation markers. Atorvastatin pre-24 vented accumulation of free cholesterol in the form of cholesterol crystals (-78%). Cholesterol crys-25 tals are potent inducers of the NLRP3 inflammasome pathway and atorvastatin prevented its acti-26 vation, which resulted in reduced expression of the pro-inflammatory cytokines interleukin (IL)-1β 27 (-61%) and IL-18 (-26%). Transcriptome analysis confirmed strong reducing effects of atorvastatin 28 on inflammatory mediators, including NLRP3, NFκB and TLR4. The present study demonstrates 29 that atorvastatin reduces hepatic steatosis, inflammation and fibrosis and prevents cholesterol crys-30 tal formation, thereby precluding NLRP3 inflammasome activation. This may render atorvastatin 31 treatment as an attractive approach to reduce NAFLD and prevent progression into NASH in 32 dyslipidemic patients.
