- W2156880872 abstract "Recent reports demonstrate a hypocholesterolaemic effect of daily subcutaneous injections of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitors in different rat models of hyperlipidaemia. However, this effect is not seen after oral administration of HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors in rats. We found that oral administration of the HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor Simvastatin also had no effect on plasma cholesterol in severely hyperlipidaemic Nagase analbuminaemic rats (NAR). Simvastatin (an apolar compound dissolved in propylene glycol) was infused continuously for 28 days into the subcutis of control Sprague-Dawley rats (SDR) and NAR using an implanted osmotic pump. All doses which were effective in reducing cholesterol in the NAR (reductions up to -60%), reduced apolipoprotein AI but not apolipoprotein B and caused a severe inflammatory reaction in the dermis. Similar toxicity was observed in the SDR. Subcutaneous administration of the vehicle (propylene glycol) did not cause this reaction and did not affect plasma lipids. Administration of Lovastatin in osmotic pumps resulted in a similar inflammatory reaction. Incorporation of Simvastatin into liposomes did not diminish the toxic effect. On the other hand, infusion of Pravastatin (a polar HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor dissolved in isotonic saline) caused no changes in the dermis and had no effect on plasma lipids in NAR or SDR. Liver microsomes prepared from the Pravastatin-treated rats demonstrated a 3- to 4-fold increase in HMG-CoA reductase activity as compared to untreated rats, confirming uptake of the drug. We conclude that continuous subcutaneous administration of the HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors Simvastatin, Lovastatin and Pravastatin for 28 days may not reduce plasma cholesterol in rats by a mechanism which is related to inhibition of HMG-CoA reductase activity in the liver. The decrease of plasma cholesterol effected by subcutaneous infusion of Simvastatin or Lovastatin in NAR coincides with, and may be related to inflammatory changes caused by administering these compounds into the dermis." @default.
