Description and Uses
Gemfibrozil is a peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α (PPARα) and PPARγ agonist (EC50s = 193.3 and 147.8 μM, respectively, in transactivation assays). In vivo, gemfibrozil (50 mg/kg, p.o.) reduces serum total cholesterol, triglyceride, and LDL levels in a rat model of high-cholesterol diet-induced hyperlipidemia. Gemfibrozil (100 mg/kg per day) reduces atherosclerotic plaque area, superoxide production, and expression of the genes encoding the NF-κB subunit p65 and chemokine (C-C) motif ligand 2 (CCL2) in ApoE-/- mice. Formulations containing gemfibrozil have been used in the treatment of high cholesterol.
This drug is used for hyperlipoproteinemia that cannot be corrected by a special diet or by physical exertion.
