"Longitudinal transcriptional profiling revealed that simvastatin downregulated the inflammatory genes fos, jun, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha and upregulated the cell cycle inhibitor p27Kip1, endothelial nitric oxide synthase, and bone morphogenetic protein receptor type 1a."

reach
"In one study, simvastatin, atorvastatin, and lovastatin were shown to downregulate nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-kappaB), activator protein-1, and hypoxia-inducible factor-1alpha in endothelial and arterial smooth muscle cells, which play a role in downstream activity of pro-inflammatory cytokines, chemokines, adhesion molecules, and growth factors (Dichtl et al. 2003)."

reach
"Simvastatin (10 μM) downregulates the transcriptional activity of ATF-2 and c-jun, which then causes a dramatic decrease in the proliferative capacity of glioma cells [123]."
