Simvastatin acid  (Synonyms: Tenivastatin)

Simvastatin acid (Tenivastatin), a hydrolysate of Simvastatin (HY-17502), is a HMG-CoA reductase (HMGCR) inhibitor. Simvastatin acid reduces Indoxyl sulfate-mediated reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in human cardiomyocytes. Simvastatin acid can also modulates OATP3A1 expression in cardiomyocytes and HEK293 cells transfected with the OATP3A1 gene^[1][2].

HMG-CoA reductase, Reactive oxygen species^[1][2]

Simvastatin acid (0.1-20 μM; 24 h) significantly decreases ROS production between 8.9% and 43% in Indoxyl sulfate-treated hCM cells^[2].
Simvastatin acid (0.1-20 μM; 24 h) alters the protein expression of OATP3A1 in hCMs and OATP3A1-expressing HEK293 cells^[2].
