Natural and synthetic derivatives of benzo-γ-pyrones (i.e. flavones, chromones, and coumarins) and their synthetic analogues possess a wide range of biological properties in vitro and in vivo. In this paper we investigated the influence of two hydrazone compounds of chromones, 3-{[(2-dimethoxytiophosphoryl)-2-methylhydrazono]-methyl}-chromen-4-one (CH-3) and 2-amino-6-chloro-3-[(2-hydroxyethyl)-hydrazonomethyl]-chromen-4-one (A-12), on lipid peroxidation and bFGF concentration in the HL-60 cells. Both of the studied compounds had a significant influence on bFGF and TBARS in ranges -137.20 ~ 380.26% and -81.66 ~ -28.68%, respectively, in comparison with the control (counted as 0 %).

This study was undertaken to verify whether simvastatin modulates Cav-1/eNOS expression, and if this modulation is associated with changes in pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokine and Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) level in abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). It is a 1:2 case-control study of non-statin (n=12) and simvastatin-treated patients (n=24) who underwent open AAA repair. Simvastatin treatment decreased Cav-1 (p<0.05) and increased eNOS expression (p<0.01) in the AAA wall. These changes might be dose dependent. The changes in Cav-1 and eNOS were associated with a trend towards decreased IL-6 and IL-17 concentration (p>0.05) and increased IL-10 concentration (p=0.055); however, TLR4 expression was unaffected, suggesting that simvastatin influences Cav-1 and eNOS in the AAA wall by other mechanisms. Simvastatin may modulate Cav-1 and eNOS expression in the aneurysmal wall, indicating a potentially beneficial role for statins in AAA patients.
