Abstract
Our results support the idea that subsequent changes are produced on the addition of statins into the culture medium, and which affect cell adhesiveness, as well as mobility and. in the case of smooth muscle cells, the contractility. These changes may explain, at least partly, some of the effects other than those directly related to the lipid lowering effect. Behind such changes may be found alterations in intracellular metabolism.
