Lipoprotein lipase activator. Overexpression of lipoprotein lipase in transgenic rabbits leads to increased small dense LDL in plasma and promotes atherosclerosis. Long-term administration of NO-1886 protects against the development of experimental atherosclerosis in animals.

In the present study, the effects on expression of cytochrome P450 (CYP1A1, CYP1A2, CYP3A4 and CYP3A5), carboxylesterase (CES1 and CES2) and sulfotransferase (CHST1, CHST3, CHST4, CST, SULT2A1 and TPST2) mRNA in primary cultures of cryopreserved human hepatocytes were evaluated after

The synthetic compound NO-1886 (ibrolipim) is a lipoprotein lipase activator that has been proven to be highly effective in lowering plasma triglycerides. Recently, we found that NO-1886 also reduced plasma free fatty acids and glucose in high-fat/high-sucrose diet-induced diabetic rabbits.

Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) is a rate-limiting enzyme that hydrolyzes circulating triglyceride-rich lipoprotein such as very low density lipoproteins and chylomicrons. A decrease in LPL activity is associated with an increase in plasma triglycerides (TG) and decrease in high density lipoprotein

Inflammation, closely associated with obesity, is emerging as an important risk factor for the pathophysiological development of atherosclerosis and diabetes mellitus. Fat balance is critical in the aetiology of obesity. Lipoprotein lipase is an important enzyme in lipid metabolism. The

Various intestinal symptoms or diseases are closely associated with intestinal motility, which may be altered by metabolic disturbances associated with diabetes and obesity. It is therefore important that drugs used in the treatment of metabolic disorders should not have any
