Fenofibrate reduced progression of diabetic retinopathy in two large randomized studies. The effect of 135 mg fenofibric acid on diabetic macular edema (DME) was evaluated in subjects with existing DME. In this double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study, 110 subjects with DME not
Liver is a major regulator of lipid metabolism and adaptation to fasting, a process involving PPARalpha activation. We recently showed that the Vnn1 gene is a PPARalpha target gene in liver and that release of the Vanin-1 pantetheinase in serum
Fenofibrate is a fibric acid derivative indicated for the treatment of severe hypertriglyceridaemia and mixed dyslipidaemia in patients who have not responded to nonpharmacological therapies. The lipid-modifying effects of fenofibrate are mediated by the activation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-α. Fenofibrate
Microvascular complications are common in type 2 diabetes in primary care. Intensified management of glycaemia or blood pressure had little effect on microvascular complication rates in recent large trials (ADVANCE, VADT, ACCORD). In 2005, the FIELD study demonstrated a significant
Fenofibrate is a third-generation fibric acid derivative employed clinically as a hypolipidemic agent to lessen the risk caused by atherosclerosis. Dyslipidemia is a condition associated with elevated levels of low-density lipoproteins (LDL), very low-density lipoproteins (VLDL) and triglycerides, and reduced
