Biochem/physiol Actions

Acipimox, also known as olbemox, is a nicotinic acid analog. It functions as an anti-lipolytic drug and vasodilator. Acipimox may be used in various metabolic studies involving insulin and ghrelin. It lowers total cholesterol and total triglycerides, which helps in the treatment of hyperlipidemia.
Niacin-derived, vasodilator studied for its lipid-lowering effect.

Impaired growth hormone secretion in obese subjects is partially reversed by acipimox-mediated plasma free fatty acid depression

Circulating free fatty acids (FFAs) may worsen heart failure (HF) due to myocardial lipotoxicity and impaired energy generation. We studied cardiac and whole body effects of 28 days of suppression of circulating FFAs with acipimox in patients with chronic HF.
Fabrizio Montecucco et al.
American journal of physiology. Endocrinology and metabolism, 300(4), E681-E690 (2011-01-27)
Metabolic syndrome is a proatherosclerotic condition clustering cardiovascular risk factors, including glucose and lipid profile alterations. The pathophysiological mechanisms favoring atherosclerotic inflammation in the metabolic syndrome remain elusive. Here, we investigated the potential role of the antilipolytic drug acipimox on
Paola Lucidi et al.
Diabetes, 59(6), 1349-1357 (2010-03-20)
Changes in glucose metabolism occurring during counterregulation are, in part, mediated by increased plasma free fatty acids (FFAs), as a result of hypoglycemia-activated lipolysis. However, it is not known whether FFA plays a role in the development of posthypoglycemic insulin
Hanna-Riikka Lehto et al.
The Journal of clinical endocrinology and metabolism, 97(9), 3277-3284 (2012-07-05)
We tested the hypothesis that a persistent reduction in free fatty acid (FFA) levels improves cardiac function and systemic insulin sensitivity via a reduction in the myocardial and skeletal muscle adiposities and a modulation in adipokine release. Study subjects (body
