## Abstract Elevated 3‐hydroxy‐3‐methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG‐CoA) reductase expression supports synthesis of prenyl pyrophosphate intermediates required for tumor growth. In this study, the copy number of HMG‐CoA reductase mRNA was determined in solid tumor and leukemic cell lines using competit

## Abstract 3‐Hydroxy 3‐methylglutaryl Coenzyme A reductase (HMG‐CoAR) and its end‐products are crucial for insulin‐induced differentiation of fetal rat myoblasts (L6) both at early and terminal stages of development. Inhibition of HMG‐CoAR activity and reduction of the enzyme levels impair the exp
We have examined the amino terminal membrane anchoring domain of Arabidopsis thaliana 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase (Hmg1p), a key enzyme of the isoprenoid biosynthetic pathway. Using both in vitro and in vivo approaches, we have analyzed a series of recombinant derivatives to iden
## Abstract The rate‐limiting enzyme for mevalonate synthesis in mammalian cells is 3‐hydroxy‐3‐methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG‐CoA) reductase. Products of mevalonate synthesis are required for cell cycle progression as well as cell growth and survival. In tumor cells, HMG‐CoA reductase is generally
Elevated thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) and hypercholesterolemia commonly coexist, as typically seen in hypothyroidism, but there is no known mechanism directly linking the two. Here, we demonstrated that in liver cells, TSH promoted the expression of 3-hydroxy-3-methyl-glutaryl coenzyme A reduct
