Effect of Statins (Zocor) on Oxygen-Dependent Processes in Muscle Tissue and Erythrocytes in Animals with Hypercholesterolemia
Background. Statin therapy may be accompanied by a toxic effect on skeletal muscle and liver cells, the molecular mechanisms of which have not yet been fully understood.Aim. To clarify the peculiarities of changes in the oxygen transport function of erythrocytes and antioxidant mechanisms in erythro...

To clarify the peculiarities of changes in the oxygen transport function of erythrocytes and antioxidant mechanisms in erythrocytes and muscles of animals with prolonged administration of statins (simvastatin).Materials and methods. The study was conducted on outbred male rats, which during the experiment were randomly assigned to following groups: the control group contained animals on a common ration of the vivarium, the group of comparison – animals with induced hypercholesterolemia, the main group – animals with induced hypercholesterolemia treated with simvastatin. In erythrocytes and muscle tissue of animals, indicators characterizing the state of antioxidant defense and carbohydrate metabolism were determined.The results. The experiment showed that the administration of simvastatin to animals was characterized by aggravation of hypoxia due to hypercholesterolemia, as indicated by a sharp increase in the concentration of 2,3-BPG and lactate in erythrocytes of animals, as well as a significant decrease in the activity of G6PD. In the muscle tissue of animals, there was a decrease in the concentration of pyruvic acid and lactate relative to the comparison group, which indicates their intensive participation in metabolic processes.Conclusion.
