Treatment of cultured human fibroblasts with the hypocholesterolemic drug AY 9944 resulted in a marked increase in low density lipoprotein internalization and degradation for concentrations up to 5 X 10(-6)M. Low density lipoprotein binding was less affected. Concentrations above 5 X 10(-6)M resulted in a relative decrease in low density lipoprotein degradation, whereas binding and internalization plateaued. The stimulation of low density lipoprotein internalization took place within the first hours of incubation of cells with the drug, which suggests a direct effect on the cell membrane. Such phenomenon could account at least partially for the hypocholesterolemic effect of the drug, besides its inhibitory effect on 7-dehydrocholesterol reductase.
