| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Description]
Meglutol (β-hydroxy-β-methylglutaric acid; HMG) is a hypolipidemic agent that
acts via the inhibition of cholesterol synthesis a t the stage of HMG-CoAreductase,
blocking the conversion of HMG-CoA to mevalonate. This conversion
is the rate-limiting step in cholesterol biosynthesis and is the point of
physiological feedback control; as such, it appears to be the ideal locus of action
for a hypolipidemic agent. Investigational compounds that act by this mechanism
include the natural products compactin and mevinolin. | [Chemical Properties]

antihyperlipoproteinemia | [Definition]
ChEBI: A dicarboxylic acid that is glutaric acid in which one of the two hydrogens at position 3 is substituted by a hydroxy group, while the other is substituted by a methyl group. It has been found to accumulate in urine of patients suffering from HMG-CoA lyase
(3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA lyase, EC 4.1.3.4) deficiency. It occurs as a plant metabolite in Crotalaria dura. | [Brand name]
