There are many pathological conditions leading to an elevated unconjugated bilirubin level (hyperbilirubinaemia) in neonates. Currently the standard therapies for unconjugated hyperbilirubinaemia include phototherapy and exchange transfusion. In addition to phototherapy, clofibrate has been studied as a treatment for hyperbilirubinaemia

Clofibrate has cholesterol- and triglyceride-lowering effect. They affect on the various points in the metabolic pathway of lipoproteins. They improve VLDL-synthesis in liver and increase the activity of LPL and hepatic TG lipase. As the results, HDL-cholesterol increases and LDL

The biological activity of peroxisome proliferators (PPs) is mediated by a class of receptors, known as PPARs (PP-Activated Receptor), belonging to the nuclear receptor superfamily. Upon ligand binding, PPARs dimerize with retinoid receptors, translocate to the nucleus, recognize specific PP-responsive
