    Product Description

    NO-pravastatin is a derivative of pravastatin (Item No. 10010343) that contains a nitric oxide-releasing moiety.1,2 It induces cGMP formation in PC12 cells (EC50 = 2.3 µM) and inhibits the proliferation of isolated rat aortic smooth muscle cells (IC50 = 2.2 µM).1 NO-pravastatin reduces inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and COX-2 levels in LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells. NO-pravastatin (48.5 mg/kg) reduces splenocyte adhesion to artery segments isolated from wild-type and ApoE-/- mice.2 It reduces infarct size in a mouse model of myocardial infarction when administered at a dose of 22.4 µmol/kg.3 NO-pravastatin (24-48 mg/kg) reduces platelet consumption, lung vessel occlusion, and mortality in mouse models of platelet pulmonary thromboembolism induced by collagen and epinephrine or U-46619 (Item No. 16450).4
