The PROMINENT trial: swan song of the fibrates
Post hoc analyses of previous fibrate trials have suggested that individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus with high triglyceride levels and low HDL-cholesterol levels benefit from fibrate therapy even when the overall trial results were neutral. However

Peroxisome Proliferator Activated Receptors and Lipoprotein Metabolism [PDF]
Plasma lipoproteins are responsible for carrying triglycerides and cholesterol in the blood and ensuring their delivery to target organs. Regulation of lipoprotein metabolism takes place at numerous levels including via changes in gene transcription.

ABSTRACT Background In the SELECT trial, semaglutide reduced major adverse cardiovascular outcomes (MACE) in individuals with overweight or obesity and established cardiovascular disease (CVD) but without diabetes. However, real‐world cardiovascular event rates in comparable populations remain uncharacterised.

Treatment with fibrates is associated with higher LAL activity in dyslipidemic patients [PDF]
Lysosomal acid lipase (LAL) is responsible for the hydrolysis of cholesteryl esters (CE) and triglycerides (TG) within the lysosomes; generated cholesterol and free fatty acids (FFA) are released in the cytosol where they can regulate their own synthesis

ABSTRACT Aims Treatment options for metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) are limited. While glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonists (GLP‐1 RA) and sodium‐glucose cotransporter‐2 (SGLT‐2) inhibitors improve cardiovascular outcomes, comparative effectiveness on liver‐related outcomes remains unclear.

Fibrates for Primary Biliary Cholangitis: What’s All the Hype?
Ursodeoxycholic acid is the first-line therapy for primary biliary cholangitis. However, a subset of patients fail to show biochemical response. For these patients, adjuvant therapies are warranted. Obeticholic acid was conditionally approved as a second-

Treatment Goals for Primary Biliary Cholangitis, an Australian Perspective
ABSTRACT Primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) is an autoimmune liver disease that targets the small intrahepatic bile ducts with diagnosis based on elevated serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) levels and the presence of anti‐mitochondrial antibodies. Untreated, it may run a progressive course to cirrhosis and hepatic decompensation, at which point liver ...

Fibrates, glitazones, and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors.
International audienceSeveral decades ago, fibrates were approved for the treatment of dyslipidemia, whereas thiazolidinediones were screened in animal models to improve glucose homeostasis and were subsequently developed for the treatment of type 2 ...
