1 Furthermore, this increased LDL receptor activity in cells incubated for 24 h with mevinolin and lipoprotein-depleted serum (LPDS) led to a nearly 3-fold increase in the formation of cholesteryl esters when these cells were then incubated with LDL for 24 h. Continuous exposure to mevinolin did not result in a constant increase in LDL receptor activity. Lovastatin low density lipoprotein receptor Homo sapiens

4 Cells exposed to mevinolin for 24 h on day 3 had increased LDL receptor activity, but continuous exposure to mevinolin with 5% human serum (HS) from day 3-9 resulted in degradation of [125I]LDL at the same rate as observed in cells incubated with 5% HS alone.
