Experiments conducted point out that mice treated with statins are much more resistant to staph infections. Moreover, phagocytes isolated from these mice were highly efficient at killing staph bacteria. Uncomplicated exposure of freshly isolated human white blood cells to statins in a test tube in all probability increased their ability to kill staph and other crucial illness causing bacteria. In every single case the elevated killing supposedly linked with greater release of the DNA-based extracellular traps by the phagocytes. It was affirmed that statins are extra beneficial than merely restricting cholesterol production.
