Current perspectives on lipid management in diabetic kidney disease: Can fibrates offer advantages over statins for renal outcomes? [PDF]
Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) affects 30%–40% of patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). Dyslipidemia is a key modifiable risk factor for the development and progression of DKD.

Exploring the mechanism of fibrates regulating HIF-1A in the treatment of ischemic stroke based on network pharmacology and molecular docking [PDF]
Fibrates can prevent and treat ischemic stroke (IS), the occurrence and development of IS is closely related to hypoxia-inducible factor-1A (HIF-1A). However, the exact mechanism by which fibrates regulate HIF-1A to treat IS remains unclear.

Disproportionality analysis of biliary adverse events associated with fibrates using the JADER and FAERS databases [PDF]
IntroductionFibrates are effective triglyceride-lowering drugs, but they may affect bile acid metabolism, raising concerns about biliary adverse drug events (ADEs).ObjectiveIn this study, we used spontaneous reporting system databases to evaluate the ...

Impact of concomitant fibrates on immunotherapy outcomes for advanced non‐small cell lung cancer
Background Peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor agonists such as fibrates restore oxidative metabolism in cytotoxic T‐lymphocytes, thereby enhancing response to immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) in preclinical models. However, there is no evidence

Association between triglyceride levels and cardiovascular disease in patients with acute pancreatitis. [PDF]
Conventional wisdom supports prescribing "fibrates before statins", that is, prioritizing treatment of hypertriglyceridemia (hTG) to prevent pancreatitis ahead of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol to prevent coronary heart disease.

PPARα Ligand-Binding Domain Structures with Endogenous Fatty Acids and Fibrates
Summary: Most triacylglycerol-lowering fibrates have been developed in the 1960s–1980s before their molecular target, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARα), was identified.
