Figure 2. Effect of camphene and mevinolin on HMG-CoA reductase activity in HepG2 cells.

Figure 2

On day 7, HepG2 cells were incubated with camphene (37 µM) and mevinolin (37 µM) for 18 h. After incubation, cell extracts were prepared and assayed for HMG-CoA reductase activity as described in the Methods section. HMG-CoA reductase activity is expressed in cpm. Results are from three independent experiments in triplicates and expressed as the mean ± SD. Significant differences between values were determined by the Student-Newmann-Keuls test. p<0.001 (***) and ns (non significant).
