ABSTRACT
Statins are derived from biological products, that
inhibit 3-hydroxy-3-methyl-glutaryl-coenzyme A
(HMG- CoA) reductase stopping the conversion
of HMG-CoA to mevalonate and producing a
descent in serum cholesterol, its most renown
effect. Reduction in serum levels of low density
lipoproteins (LDL) has been a cornerstone in
cardiovascular disease prevention. Statins are
amongst the most popular, effective and used
medicines towards that goal, not only for its
effect in lipids but for its pleiotropic properties.
The redirecting of the pharmaceutical industry
and the lack of therapeutic resources against
neurodegenerative diseases, supported by the
biological mechanism of action of simvastatin
has motivated research of this drug as an option
for treating Alzheimer’s disease and secondary
progressive multiple sclerosis. Successful results
have been achieved in case control, cohort and
phase II studies, however despite the optimism by
the mechanism of action and its in vitro and in
vivo effectiveness over different biomarkers, these
positive results haven’t been replicated in a phase
III study. Investigation on the topic remains very
active.
