A compound according to formula I ##STR16## wherein a) R.sub.1 is hydrogen and
- R.sub.2 is ##STR17## wherein R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 are independently hydrogen, C.sub.1-6 -alkyl, C.sub.2-6 -alkenyl, (hydroxy or C.sub.1-4 -alkoxy)-C.sub.1-6 -alkyl or C.sub.6-14 -aryl or substituted aryl, or
- b) R.sub.1 is hydrogen and R.sub.2 is ##STR18## or
- R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 together are ##STR19## both radicals ##STR20## being derived from a natural amino acid, a natural amine, or a respective amide, R.sub.5 and R.sub.6 being the appropriate groups to form said radicals derived from natural amino acids, amines or respective amides,
- and X is hydrogen, ##STR21## or --PO.sub.4 H.sub.2, R.sub.3

A method for prevention of atherosclerosis and/or for treatment of hyperlipidemia or atherosclerosis comprising administering to a host in need thereof an effective amount of a compound or a mixture of compounds according to formula (I) ##STR24## wherein a) R.sub.1 is hydrogen and R.sub.2 is ##STR25## wherein R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 are independently hydrogen, C.sub.1-6 -alkyl, C.sub.2-6 -alkenyl, (hydroxy or C.sub.1-4 -alkoxy)-C.sub.1-6 -alkyl or C.sub.6-14 -aryl or substituted aryl or
- b) R.sub.1 is hydrogen and R.sub.2 is ##STR26## or
- R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 together are ##STR27## both radicals ##STR28## and ##STR29## being derived from a
- natural amino acids, a natural amine, or a respective amide, R.sub.5 and R.sub.6 being the appropriate groups to form said radicals derived from natural amino acids, amines or respective amides,
- and X is hydrogen, ##STR30## R.sub.3 being independently a group defined for R.sub.3 above;
- or a pharmacologically acceptable salt selected from the group consisting of sulfate, pyrosulfate, bisulfate, sulfite, bisulfite phosphate, monohydrogen phosphate, dihydrogen phosphate, metaphosphate, pyrophosphate, chloride, bromide, iodide, acetate, propionate, decanoate, caprylate, acrylate, formate, isobutyrate, caproate, heptanoate, propionate, malonate, succinate, suberate, sebacate, fumarate, maleate, butyne-1,4-dioate, hexyne-1,6-dioate, benzoate, chlorobenzoate, methylbenzoate, dinitrobenzoate, hydroxybenzoate, methoxybenzoate, phthalate, terephthalate, benezenesulfonate, toluenesulfonate, chlorobenzenesulfonate, xylenesulfonate, phenylacetate, phenylpropionate, glycolate, malate, tartrate, methanesulfonate, propanesulfonate, naphthalene-1-sulfonate and naphthalene-2-sulfonate, salts of said compound. with the provisos that:
- when one of R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 is H and the other is NR.sub.3 R.sub.4 and both R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 are H or one of R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 is H and the other is alkyl, then X is not PO.sub.4 H.sub.2 ;
- when X is H and one of R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 is H and the other is NR.sub.3 R.sub.4 and both R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 are H or one of R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 is H and the other is alkyl, then the resultant compound is not coadministered with clofibric acid or an ester or salt thereof;
- that when R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are .dbd.N'CHR.sub.5 R.sub.6, then .dbd.NCHR.sub.5 R.sub.6 is not derived from glutamic or aspartic acid when X is PO.sub.4 H.sub.2.
