<p>Controlled studies demonstrate that methods using soy related peptides inhibit H3 acetylation, reduce expression of HMG-CoA reductase and increase LDL receptor and Sp1 expression in mammals. The present disclosure is generally directed to using lunasin peptides and/or lunasin peptide derivatives to 1) inhibit H3 acetylation, 2) reduce expression of HMG-CoA reductase, 3) increase LDL receptor expression or 4) increase Sp1 expression in a mammal. In at least one exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, an effective amount of lunasin peptides or lunasin peptide derivatives and one or more enzyme inhibitors is provided to a mammal to 1) inhibit H3 acetylation, 2) reduce expression of HMG-CoA reductase, 3) increase LDL receptor expression or 4) increase Sp1 expression in a mammal.</p> |
