METHOD OF INHIBITING APOLIPOPROTEIN-E EXPRESSION WHILE INCREASING EXPRESSION OF AT LEAST ONE OF LDL-RECEPTOR PROTEIN OR ABCA1 PROTEIN COMPRISING ADMINISTERING A SMALL COMPOUND

摘要

This invention offers an effective method of decreasing expression of apolipoprotein E and increasing expression of at least one of either LDL-receptor protein or AbcA1 protein including selecting mammalian cells expressing apoE and at least one of either LDL-receptor protein or AbcA1 protein, contacting the mammalian cell with an effective amount of a compound having general formula (I) or general formula (II) in an amount sufficient to decrease expression of the apoE and increase expression of at least one of the LDL-receptor protein or the AbcA1 protein in the mammalian cell.
