Effect of Statins on Superoxide Dismutase Level: A Systematic Review
CONCLUSION: Our systematic review suggests that treatment with statins has a positive effect on SOD activity. However, evidence from further randomized controlled trials is required to confirm the potential antioxidant effect of statin therapy.PMID:37653630 | DOI:10.2174/0929867331666230831145809

Statins, allies against antibiotic resistance?
Curr Med Chem. 2023 Aug 29. doi: 10.2174/0929867331666230829141301. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTDue to the ever-increasing rate of antibacterial resistance, the search for effective antibacterial agents has become imperative. Researchers have investigated the potential antimicrobial properties of various classes of nonantibiotic drugs. Statins are a group of antihyperlipidemic drugs with several cholesterol-independent effects, including anti-inflammatory, immune-modulating, antioxidant, and antibacterial effects. In vitro and in vivo studies have demonstrated the antibacterial properties of statins against various gram-...

Using stable carbon isotope ratio analysis to detect adulteration in red yeast rice dietary supplements
Talanta. 2023 Aug 23;266(Pt 2):125076. doi: 10.1016/j.talanta.2023.125076. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTRed yeast rice (RYR) is marketed as a dietary supplement because it contains natural 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase inhibitors (statins), including monacolin K. However, there is concern that some RYR supplements may be adulterated with the pharmaceutical drug lovastatin to enhance health claims. We have developed an optimized method to isolate monacolin K/lovastatin from complex RYR dietary supplement matrices to then test for adulteration in RYR supplements using stable carbon isotope (δ13C) analysis...

Microextraction based on liquid-solid phase transition of benzoic acid: Extraction of statins from human urine followed by chromatographic analysis
Talanta. 2023 Aug 18;266(Pt 2):125088. doi: 10.1016/j.talanta.2023.125088. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTHerein, a microextraction method was reported based on the liquid-solid phase transition of benzoic acid to quantify two statins, namely lovastatin and simvastatin in authentic human urine. The principle of the method is based on the phase transition of benzoic acid by altering the pH of the sample solution enabling efficient dispersion and phase separation in one step. Due to the moderate melting point of benzoic acid, its solidification is performed at ambient temperature without the need for sample cooling. Various e...
