CAS 79394-47-1
:Monacolin L
Description:
Monacolin L, identified by its CAS number 79394-47-1, is a naturally occurring compound primarily derived from the fermentation of rice by the mold Monascus purpureus, commonly known as red yeast rice. It belongs to a class of compounds known as statins, which are recognized for their ability to inhibit the enzyme HMG-CoA reductase, a key player in cholesterol biosynthesis. This inhibition leads to a reduction in cholesterol levels in the bloodstream, making Monacolin L of interest for its potential cardiovascular benefits. The compound is often studied for its role in managing hyperlipidemia and promoting heart health. In addition to its lipid-lowering effects, Monacolin L may exhibit antioxidant properties, contributing to its overall health benefits. However, as with any bioactive compound, the efficacy and safety of Monacolin L can vary based on dosage, individual health conditions, and potential interactions with other medications. Therefore, it is essential to consult healthcare professionals before using supplements containing this compound.
