Relatively high concentrations of MK-733 (simvastatin) and MK-803 (lovastatin, mevinolin), which are 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitors, were found to inhibit acyl coenzyme A: cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT) of rabbit intestinal microsomes with IC50's of 2.0 x 10(-5) and 3.6 x 10(-5) M, respectively. Dihydroxy acid forms of both MK-733 and MK-803 did not inhibit ACAT activity. A kinetic analysis using a Lineweaver-Burk plot indicated that MK-733 is a competitive inhibitor of ACAT, with a Ki value of 1.2 x 10(-5) M.
相对高浓度的MK - 733(辛伐他汀)和MK - 803(洛伐他汀,美伐他汀),它们是3 - 羟基 - 3 - 甲基戊二酰辅酶A(HMG - CoA)还原酶抑制剂,被发现能抑制兔肠道微粒体的酰基辅酶A:胆固醇酰基转移酶(ACAT),其半数抑制浓度(IC50)分别为2.0×10⁻⁵和3.6×10⁻⁵ M。MK - 733和MK - 803的二羟基酸形式均不抑制ACAT活性。使用Lineweaver - Burk图进行的动力学分析表明,MK - 733是ACAT的竞争性抑制剂,其抑制常数(Ki)值为1.2×10⁻⁵ M。
