Atorvastatin Sodium
Atorvastatin Sodium is a competitive HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor that upregulates hepatic LDL receptor expression. It also exhibits neuroprotective properties by inhibiting aquaporin 4 to mitigate cerebral edema in ischemic models. This small molecule is widely used in cardiovascular and neuroscience research, both in vitro and in vivo, to study cholesterol metabolism and neuroinflammation.
