Simvastatin increased survivin expression in rat liver in LPS-induced inflammation. Distribution of survivin-positive hepatocytes that were challenged with a non-lethal dose of LPS or either pretreated with simvastatin 40 mg/kg before LPS, magnification 400x. (A) Control group. (B) Note significant increase in the number of survivin-positive hepatocytes with intensive cytoplasmic staining in the LPS group, (C) Simvastatin 40 mg/kg + LPS group. Simvastatin increased survivin expression in rat spleen in LPS-induced inflammation. Distribution of survivin-positive lymphocytes that were challenged with a non-lethal dose of LPS or either pretreated with simvastatin 40 mg/kg before LPS, magnification 400×. (D) Control group. (E) Note significant increase in a number of survivin-positive lymphocytes with intensive cytoplasmic staining in the LPS group, and (F) Simvastatin 40 mg/kg + LPS group.
