Example sentences for: statin-activated

How can you use “statin-activated” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • Low doses (<1 μM) of mevalonic acid did not affect statin-induced sAPP α shedding, but complete inhibition of statin-activated sAPP α shedding was achieved with higher doses of mevalonic acid (100 μM).

  • To test whether statin-activated shedding might be attributable to a metabolite downstream of HMGCoA reductase, cells were treated with 1 μM simvastatin, 5 μM FTI-1, and a series of concentrations of mevalonic acid.

  • FTI-1, an inhibitor of farnesyl transferase also known as L-744,832 [59], mimicked and potentiated statin-activated shedding, presumably by blocking transfer of isoprenoid moieties to a Rho protein by farnesyl transferase, and thereby decreasing Rho activity.

  • In further support of a role for isoprenoids, we were able to demonstrate that supplementation of cells with mevalonate abolished statin-activated shedding (see Figure 4).

  • Our data using statins and PO localize the mediator of statin-activated shedding to the plasma membrane, upstream of endocytosis, as appears to be the case for PKC-activated shedding [36,63,64,65].
