Journal ArticleDOI
3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaric acid and experimental atherosclerosis in rats.
S. Y. K. Yousufzai,Majid Siddiqi +1 more
TL;DR: In rats 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaric acid effectively counteracts the lipemic and atherosclerotic response of massive doses of vitamin D2 and regressed the formation of atheromatous arterial lesions.
Journal ArticleDOI
3-Hydroxy-3-methylglutaric acid and triton-induced hyperlipidemia in rats.
S. Y. K. Yousufzai,M. Siddiqi +1 more
TL;DR: 3-Hydroxy-3-methylglutaric acid significantly decreased cholesterol, triglyceride and phospholipid levels in whole serum, serum β-lipoproteins and liver of Triton-induced hyperlipidemic rats.
Journal ArticleDOI
Protective effect of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaric acid in alcohol-induced lipemia
TL;DR: A comparative study of HMG and nicotinic acid in rats showed that, therapeutically, 50 mg MHG/kg body weight is equivalent to 200 mg nicotinIC acid/kgBody weight in offering almost total protection against lipemic effects of ethanol.
Journal ArticleDOI
Serum and liver lipid responses to 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaric acid in rats on different carbohydrate diets
S. Y. K. Yousufzai,Majid Siddiqi +1 more
TL;DR: 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaric acid showed a significant cholesterol- and triglyceride-lowering effect in the whole serum, serum β-lipoproteins, and liver of animals on all types of dietary carbohydrates and seems to be independent of the type of carbohydrate in diet.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tissue lipid responses to 3‐hydroxy‐3‐methylglutaric acid with different dietary fats
S. Y. K. Yousufzai,Majid Siddiqi +1 more
TL;DR: Simultaneous administration of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaric acid for 4 weeks to rats fed 20% saturated fats prevented rise of serum cholesterol, triglycerides, and phospholipids and the maximal hypolipidemic effect of HMG was observed in serum.
