Statins attenuate sepsis.

Abstract:

HYPOTHESIS:If (1) 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme reductase inhibitors (statins) block the rate-limiting step in cholesterol synthesis and promote the expression of low-density lipoprotein receptors, (2) "Gram-negative sepsis" results from an abundant systemic response to bacterial lipopolysaccharide (endotoxin), (3) triglyceride-rich lipoproteins can bind endotoxin and low-density lipoprotein receptors enhance the uptake of both of these molecules, and (4) low-density lipoprotein receptor internalization of lipoproteins and endotoxin co-opts a common transcriptional regulatory system (NF-kappaB) that results in reduced cell vulnerability to inflammation, then statins, in addition to their lipid-lowering capacity, enhance endotoxin clearance from the circulation and attenuate the septic response.
