Description Simvastatin acid (Tenivastatin) is an orally active HMG-CoA reductase (HMGCR) inhibitor. Simvastatin acid can reduce cholesterol synthesis and lower blood cholesterol levels[1]. Simvastatin acid shows anti-proliferation activities against cancer cells and induces apoptosis[2].

In Vitro Simvastatin acid (32 and 64 μM; 24, 48, and 72 h) inhibits tumor cell growth, arrests in the G0/G1 phase[2]. Simvastatin acid (32 and 64 μM; 48 h) induces apoptosis in HepG2 and Huh7 cells[2]. Cell Proliferation Assay[2] Cell Line: HepG2 and Huh7 cells Concentration: 32 and 64 μM Incubation Time: 24, 48, and 72 hours Result: Inhibited tumor cell growth as compared to controls (ctrl, p<0.05). Apoptosis Analysis[2] Cell Line: HepG2 and Huh7 cells Concentration: 32 and 64 μM Incubation Time: 48 hours Result: Increased early apoptosis from 9.2% in non-treated ctrl cells to 18.2% (32 μM) and 19.8% (64 μM), respectively, increased late apoptosis from 35.0% in ctrl cells to 56.9% (32 μM) and 48.0% (64 μM), respectively, in HepG2 cells. Cell Cycle Analysis[2] Cell Line: HepG2 and Huh7 cells Concentration: 32 and 64 μM Incubation Time: 24, 48, and 72 hours Result: Exhibited downregulation of CDK1, CDK2, CDK4 and cyclins D1 and E as compared to ctrl tumor cells.
In Vivo Simvastatin acid (oral gavage; 15 and 30 mg/kg; once daily; 14 d) treatment attenuats oxidative damage, TNF-a and IL-6 levels, and restores itochondrial enzyme complex activities[3]. Animal Model: Male wistar rats with oxidative damage by Intrastriatal 6-OHDA administration[3] Dosage: 15 and 30 mg/kg Administration: Oral gavage; once daily; 14 days Result: Attenuated oxidative damage (reduced MDA, nitrite levels and restoration of reduced GSH) , attenuated TNF-a and IL-6 levels, and restored itochondrial enzyme complex activities as compared to 6-OHDA group.
