Rosuvastatin-d6 Sodium Salt is a compound that functions as a competitive inhibitor of HMG-CoA reductase, an enzyme involved in the biosynthesis of cholesterol. It acts by binding to the active site of the enzyme, preventing the conversion of HMG-CoA to mevalonate, a key step in cholesterol synthesis. This inhibition leads to a decrease in intracellular cholesterol levels, which in turn upregulates the expression of LDL receptors on the cell surface. The increased number of LDL receptors enhances the uptake of circulating LDL cholesterol, thereby reducing the levels of LDL in the bloodstream. Rosuvastatin-d6 Sodium Salt has an impact on the expression of other genes involved in lipid metabolism, further contributing to its cholesterol-lowering effects. Rosuvastatin-d6 Sodium Salt exerts its action bytargeting the enzyme HMG-CoA reductase, disrupting the pathway of cholesterol.
