| Description | Mevalonate is an intermediate in the mevalonate pathway of cholesterol synthesis.1 It inhibits cell death induced by the HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor simvastatin in C2C12 myoblasts when used at concentrations ranging from 80 to 110 μM.2 Mevalonate (500 μM) reverses decreases in proliferation induced by the HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor lovastatin in several colon cancer cell lines, including RKO and SW480 cells.3 It increases lovastatin-induced decreases in the expression of the genes encoding Axin2, ectodermal-neural cortex 1 (ENC1), BCL2-like 1 (BCL2-L1), and cyclin D1 when used at a concentration of 500 μM. Mevalonate (50 μM) increases Rac1 protein levels, as well as increases Rac1 farnesylation induced by the arachidonic metabolite 15(S)-HETE in human dermal microvascular endothelial cells (HDMVECs).4 | | Uses | Mevalonic acid (MVA) lithium salt is a precursor substance of the mevalonate pathway, which is essential for cell growth and proliferation. Mevalonic acid lithium salt is effective in inhibiting Simvastatin (HY-17502)-induced decrease in C2C12 cell viability in vitro. Mevalonic acid lithium salt can be used in studies of myopathy and heart failure[1][2]. | | IC 50 | Human Endogenous Metabolite | | References | 1. Yazawa, H., Zimmermann, B., Asami, Y., et al.
