A study of lovastatin and l-arginine co-loaded PLGA nanomedicine for enhancing nitric oxide production and eNOS expression

confirmed using DAF-FM DA, augment eNOS and p-eNOS mRNA and protein levels, and suppress the ki67 proliferation marker in VSMCs; in addition, it lowers the total cholesterol level of blood plasma in C57BL/6 mice. Moreover, PLGA can protect the compound delivered and enhance the bioavailability to reach and get released in the blood circulation after oral administration. Collectively, our results endow a safe and efficient nanomedicine outcome, specifically with potential for AS management.
