Biological Information

  • Product Name
    Clofibrate
  • Note
    Research use only, not for human use.
  • Brief Description
    Clofibrate (Atromid-S), a fibric acid derivative used in the treatment of hyperlipoproteinemia type III and severe hypertriglyceridemia.
  • Description
    Clofibrate (Atromid-S), a fibric acid derivative used in the treatment of hyperlipoproteinemia type III and severe hypertriglyceridemia.(In Vitro):Clofibrate is a PPAR agonist, with E50s of 50 μM, ~500 μM for murine PPARα and PPARγ, and 55 μM, ~500 μM for human PPARα and PPARγ, respectively. Clofibrate (0.5, 1, 2 mM) increases FABP1 expression in two fatty acid (FA)-treated rat hepatoma cells. Clofibrate lowers ROS levels after early treatment, much more than late treatment in FA-treated cells.(In Vivo):Clofibrate (0.5%) up-regulates serum concentrations and hepatic expression of FGF21 in fetuses, with a return to basal levels after Clofibrate administration withdrawal. Clofibrate administration-offspring have significantly higher expression of thermogenic genes (Ucp1, Cidea, Ppara Ppargc1a, Cpt1b) and UCP1 protein levels in response to HFD in inguinal fat, but not in retroperitoneal (combined with perirenal) or epididymal fat.
