Ml-236a, ml-236b, and ml-236c, new inhibitors of cholesterogenesis produced by penicillium citrinum
Journal ArticleDOI
Competitive inhibition of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme a reductase by ML-236A and ML-236B fungal metabolites, having hypocholesterolemic activity
TL;DR: The experiments reported in this paper demonstrate that MG236A and ML-236B inhibit specifically 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl (HMG)CoA reductase (EC 1 .I .1.34), the rate-limiting enzyme in cholesterol synthetic pathway, without affecting the rest of the enzymes involved in this pathway, and that the inhibition is competitive with respect to the substrate HMG-CoA.

TL;DR: In inhibition by citrinin of cholesterol and ergosterol synthesis and its hypocholesterolemic activity in rats, the inhibition of endogenous cholesterol synthesis could lead to a lowering of its level in the plasma.
