Abstract

Ezetimibe is a new and very effective drug which reduced cholesterol. Ezetimibe well tolerated by the patients that selectively blocks cholesterol absorption from intestine.In intestine scavenger receptor class B, type I (SR-BI) has recognized as a cholesterol and triglyceride transporter.In this experiment weexamined the effect of ezetimibe on lipid profile, glucose levels as well as SR-BI expression in intestine of hypercholesterolemic mice. Mice randomly divided into three groups (n=8); group 1: hypercholesterolemic, group 2: ezetimibe and group 3: chow only. After one-month mice were sacrificed, biochemical factors were determined enzymatically as well as the levels of SR-BImRNA and protein were determined by RT-PCR and westernblotrespectively. Compared with hypercholesterolemic control, ezetimibe significantly decreased low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) (P0.05) and total cholesterol (P0. 05). Intestinal SR-BI mRNA and protein were significantly decreased in intestine by ezetimibe (P0.05). Taken together, ezetimibe significantly reduced total cholesterol as well as led to down-regulation of SR-BI in mouse intestine.
