Statins
• Competitive inhibition of HMG CoA reductase
• HMG Co A
HMG Co A
reductase
• Reduced C in the liver
• ↑ Expression of LDL receptor
• Increased LDL clearance
mevalonic acid
• Activation of sterol
regulatory element
binding protein 2
(SREBP2)
• ↑ Expression of gene
encoding LDL receptor
statin cont;
Other effects of statins
• Improve endothelial function
• Decreased coagulation
• Decreased inflammation
• Improved stability of atherosclerotic
plaques
statin cont;
• Well absorbed
• Metabolized in liver
• Extensive pre- systemic
metabolism
statin cont;
Statins

proliferator response elements
(PPREs) in the promoter regions of
specific genes

Niacin
Inhibitors of cholesterol absorption
Omega-3 fatty acids
Bile acid binding resins
• Cationic polymer resins that bind
non-covalently to negatively-charged bile
acids in small intestine
• Enterohepatic circulation of bile acids
interrupted causing up-regulation of 7αhydroxylase in hepatocytes
Bile acid binding resins cont;
Bile acid binding resins cont
• Increased expression of the LDL
receptor
• Concurrent up-regulation of hepatic
cholesterol and triglyceride synthesis
Bile acid binding resins cont
• Cholestyramine, colestipol
• ↓ LDL-cholesterol by 15-30%
• ↑ HDL-cholesterol by 3-5%
• Triglycerides: no effect or ↑
Bile acid binding resins cont
• Not absorbed from GIT
• Bloating & dyspepsia
• Decreased absorption of digoxin,
warfarin, fat-soluble vitamins
• Take one hour before or 4 h after
colestyramine

into enterocytes by
inhibiting brush border
protein NPC1L1
• Reduces cholesterol
incorporation into VLDL in
liver
Inhibitors of cholesterol absorption
• rapidly absorbed by enterocytes

• Benefit - uncertain
Summary
• Most important hyperlipidaemia is
hypercholesterolaemia
• Most effective drug – statin
