`COVER: Effect of ,8—VLDL_. chulesterol, and apoE on ncurite outgrowth from
`dorsal root ganglion neurons in vitm. The ,8-VLDL (upper left) and cholesterol
`(upper right) promote neurite extension and branching. Addition of apcIE together
`
`with I3-VLDL (lower left) or cholesterol (lower right) reduces neurite branching but
`
`promotes extension away from the cell body. (See Handelmann et al., p. 16??)

`E.‘({L'lt‘~l\-'11‘. epidemiolngic studies performed in many
`[~Qu[][1'1'.§ have shown that
`increased blood cholesterol
`
`[41314-
`increased levels oi’
`levels. or. more specifically,
`cholesi ml. are causally related to an increased risk of
`coronnnv lteart diseztse. Coronary risks rises prt)g1'essi\-‘cly
`with an increase in the cholesterol level. particularly when
`cholesrrnrol levels rise above 200 mg/dl (1, 2). There is also
`substantial evirknrc that
`lowering total and LDL—
`cholesterol
`levels will reduce the incidence oi" coronary
`heart e'i.~;ee1se (2).
`to search for tnicrnbial
`In 19?} we started a project
`metabolites that would inhibit HMG-CoA recluetase, the
`rate—li-niting enzyme in the syntliesis of cholesterol. We
`hoped that the suppression ofde novo cholesterol synthe-
`sis in the bocly by inhibiting HMG-CoA I‘t’.(lL1C[£1.'-EB would
`reduce plasma cholesterol levels in humans. These studies
`led to the discovery of a potent reductasc inhibitor, named
`meva.s|;tt.ii1 (_forn1erly called ML—236B or compactin) (3).
`Subsequently. we elucidated the biochemical mechanisms
`of action ofincvastatiti {_4, 3} and by 1980, had shown that
`[]1t3'\."rlE~I_tilil‘1 marl-zedly lowers the levels of LDL-cholesterol
`in both experiment:-.tl animals and humans (6-8). These
`findiiigs
`stimulated the world-wide development of
`nieva.-:..;itin analogues in the 19805: and. by 1990,
`three
`E'I'LIg~—Iovastatin (l‘orn'ierly called mevinolin), simvasta-
`tin, and pravastatin -had been approved and marketed in

`mones (19). Of these drugs. nicotinic acid reduces both
`cholesterol and triglyceride (especially the latter) in hu-
`mans. These efli:cts are due to ."-1 decrease in lipoprotcin
`synthesis, resulting in a fall in LDL-cholesterol. The most

`lation. Other adverse eliiects include rash, gastrointestinal
`upset, hyperttricemia, hyperglycemia. and hepatic dys-
`function (20).
`Clholestyramine, an anion—exchange resin, acts by bind-
`ing bile acids within the intestinal lumen, thus interfering
`with their reabsorption and enhancing their fecal e.~:cre-
`tion. As a result, bile acid synthesis is markedly stimu-
`lated. This
`leads
`to an increased requirement
`for
`cholesterol
`in the liver. which causes an elevation of
`
`hepatic HMG-CoA reductasc activity. Cholestyratmine is
`highly ell‘t-.ctive in the treatment of many patients with
`high cholesterol levels, but unfortunately,
`it is not toler-
`ated by all patients. The1'efore, in spite of its proven use-
`fulness.

`Clofibrate and its derivatives are the hypolipidemic
`agents most commonly used worldwide. Its major eilcct in
`hyperlipoprotcinemia is to reduce VLDL-cholesterol; in
`most patients the cholesterol-lowering effect is minimal to
`moderate. Clolibrate has several pharmacological actions,
`including stimulation ol’ lipolysis by increasing adipose
`tissue-derived lipoprotein lipase. However, details of its
`actions at the biochemical level are not well understood.

`This drug inhibits cholesterol synthesis in the final

`it was withdrawn from the market early in the
`19603 (21).
`isomer of I.-thyroxine, elTec—
`the optical
`D-Tliyroxine,
`tively lowers LDL-cholesterol
`in both euthyroid and
`hypothyroid patients. The use of D-thyroxinc in a long-
`term trial (Coronary Drug Project) in men with estab-
`lished ischemic heart disease was discontinued because of
`
`increased mortality in patients with arrhythrnias, angina
`pectoris, or multiple infarctions (20).
`Estrogens have been used to treat hyperlipidemia.
`However,
`escrogens are unsuitable as hypolipidemic
`agents in men because of their feminizing ellects and be
`cause they elevate VLDL and triglycerides (20).
`Thus, none of the drugs available by the early 1970s
`could be considered ideal cholesterol-lowering agents.
`However, experience with many drugs suggested that
`drug-induced lowering of plasma cholesterol would be
`effective in the treatment of coronary athcrogenesis and
`heart disease (1, 2).
`In the 19605, cholesterol metabolism in experimental
`animals and human subjects was extensively studied by
`many groups. Cholesterol can be derived either from the
`intestinal absorption of dietary cholesterol or from syn-
`thesis de novo within the body (22, 23). Experiments in
`several animal species showed that when cholesterol is re-
`moved from the diet,
`the liver increases its capacity to
`synthesize cholesterol and that this organ, together with
`the intestine, is able to synthesize sufficient cholesterol to
`meet the needs of all the other cells in the body. Although
`virtually all other tissues also possess the capacity to syn~
`thesize cholesterol,
`their synthetic rates.
`in contrast
`to
`those of liver and intestine. remain low during dietary
`cholesterol deprivation, so that under these circumstances
`the liver and intestine account for 32 and 11%. respec-
`tively. of all detectable sterol synthetic activity found in
`the monkey ('23). On the other hand, when cholesterol is
`added to the diet, cholesterol synthesis is nearly com-
`pletely suppressed in liver; it is partially suppressed in in-
`testine; and it remains low in other body tissues (24, 25).
`Feedback suppression of cholesterol synthesis in the liver
`by dietary cholesterol is mediated through changes in the
`activity of HMG-CoA reductase, a microsomal enzyme
`that catalyzes the conversion of HMG—CoA to mevalonate
`(23, 26).
`In addition, rcductase activity in the liver is
`regulated by many other physiological conditions. Under
`these conditions. changes in reductase activity are closely

`
`related to changes in the overall rate of cholesterol synthe-
`sis ('.?.3}. The control mechanism for cholesterol
`nthcsis
`is partially or completely lost when liver cells become
`malignant (23). These findings obtained by lit‘.-'1') sup_
`ported the concept
`that
`the inhibition of I-lT\'lG-CDA
`reductase would be an effective means of lowering plasma
`cholesterol in humans.
`
`DISCOVERY OF MEVASTATIN
`
`I began in 19?], with Dr. Masao Kuroda, to search for
`
`HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors of microbial origin. We
`hoped that certain microorganisms would prorluce such
`compounds as a weapon in the light against other mi-
`crobes that
`required sterols or other
`lS0[_}I\"t'I0ldS for
`growth. Inhibition of}-lMG—CoA reductase would thus be
`lethal to these microbes.
`
`At that time. HMG-CoA reductase was as-_:;::-«ed pi-in.
`cipally by measuring the incorporation of radioactivity
`from ["‘C]HMG—CoA into mevalonate
`('27).
`A5-
`[”C]HMG-CDA was too expensive to use for rl-.'I.r.-rrnining
`the inhibitory activity of thousands of samples, we finit
`searched for microbial culture broths that inhibited d'lE
`
`incorporation oi‘ | "‘C|acetate into nonsaponiliable lipids.
`The active broths were then tested for their ability to in-
`hibit lipid synthesis from [31-Ilrnevalonate. Culture broth!
`that were active in the first assay but not active in the so
`cond determination were suspected to Qontain a com-
`pound (or compounds} that inhibited the c'aIl_\-' stages be-
`tween acetate and mevalonate in the cholesterol synthetic
`pathway. The principal active componentts) from these"
`culture broths were isolated. Rat liver €I12_\_'t"tI:":- were used
`
`for these assays (28).
`Over a 2-year period, approximately l'i,Ul.lU microbial
`strains were tested for their ability to block ll i.-id syntl’1C5l5-
`As a result, the antibiotic citrinin was first isolated as an

`
`CoA, and mevalonate from the enzyme. These results
`suggested that
`the lactonc portion of the mevastatin
`molecule is the active center and binds to the HMG bind-
`
`ing site of the reductasc molecule. The structural similar-
`ity between the lactone and HMG portions supports this
`conclusion. Later,
`it was shown that the tight binding of
`mevastatin is the result of its simultaneous interaction
`
`with the I-INIG binding domain ofthe enzyme and the ad-
`jacent hydrophobic pocket. This region is itself not uti-
`lized in substrate binding {34-).
`The structural
`similarity between mevastatin and
`HMG—CoA and the observed competition by these two
`molecules helped to clarify preliminary structurc—activity
`relationships in the inhibition of HMG~CoA reductase.
`The rnevastatin molecule is composed of {our moieties
`(Fig. 2]: :1) the B-hydroxy~§—lactonc (or the 3,5-dihydroxy—
`heptanoie acid portion}, 2:) the moiety bridging the lactone
`and the lipophilic groups,
`c_)
`the hexahydronaphthalene
`nucleus, and rt’)
`the side chain ester. Our preliminary
`study of the structure—activity relationships suggested a
`crucial role for the 3- and 5—hydroxy groups in HMS-
`CoA rcductase inhibition, as activity is abolished by the
`conversion of either of these hydroxyl groups into the
`methyl ester. Replacement of’ the carboxyl group of the
`acid form with carboxamide also ablatcs activity ('32).
`Furthermore, the distance between the lactone and deca-
`
`lin ring influences the inhibitory activity which suggests
`that a certain spatial relationship needs to be maintained
`between the reactive site (lactone) and the putative bind-
`ing site (decalin ring) (32, 35). Another functionally es-
`sential region of mevastatin is its hexahydronaphthalcne
`ring. This is shown by evidence that HMG, which lacks
`a hexahydronaphthalene ring,
`is more than l(l5-fold less

`poun-‘as closely related to tnevastatin were also isolated
`from Pm. rz'!rt'mtm (3. 32}. Subsequently. the search for ad-
`ditional HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors was continued
`
`for ;:mother 10 years, leading to the isolation of several
`compounds of the rnevastatin family (32).

`tion at C8 shows reduced activity (38). In addition, the ot-

`this receptor mediates Feetlbaek control of Cbttlesterol syn-
`thesis and I-{MG-COA reduetase (40-42). Fatnilini hype,-_
