AIM: There has been accumulating evidence demonstrating that activators for peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor ? (PPAR?) have antiinflammatory, antiatherogenic, and vasodilatory actions. We investigated the effect of PPAR? activator, fenofibrate, on trombin-induced endothelin-1 (ET-1) expression in cultured vascular endothelial cells. METHODS: Bovine aortic endothelial cells (BAECs) were treated with the PPAR? activator, fenofibrate. The ET-1 concentrations were evaluated by radioimmunoassay. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was used to detect the ET-1 mRNA expression. RESULTS: Thrombin(10U/L) induced ET-1 release in BAECs [(22.4?4.7) nmol/g protein vs control (13.2?1.6) nmol/g protein, P

[Objective] The study was conducted to investigate the effect of micronized fenofibrate on acute insulin response in the subjects with impaired glucose metabolism and hypertriglyceridemia. [Methods] Fifty-three subjects were randomly (2:1 ratio) allocated to fenofibrate group (n=36, including IFG 3 cases, IGT 19 cases, IFG/IGT 6 cases, T2DM 8 cases) or control group (n = 17, including IFG 1 case, IGT 9 cases, IFG/IGT 4 cases, T2DM 3 cases) without any intervention for 3 months. Fasting blood samples were collected for measuring fasting plasma glucose (FPG), free fatty acids (FFA), and lipid profile. IVGTTs were carried out with measurement of plasma insulin before and after treatment. Acute insulin response (AIR), the maximum insulin concentrations (C_(INS,MAX)) to fasting insulin (FINS) ratio (C_(INS,MAX)/FINS) and values of the maximum insulin concentrations increment (△C_(INS)) during IVGTT were calculated as indexes of first-phase insulin secretion. HOMA insulin resistance index (HOMA IR) was used for assessing insulin resistance. [Results] After 3-month treatment, the lipid profile was evidently improved in fenofibrate group. Levels of trigiyceridemia (TG), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and FFA were significantly reduced and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol increased significantly. Waist circumference was also significantly declined. No change of above indicators was found in control group. In fenofibrate group, C_(INS,MAX)/FINS and △C_(INS) were significantly increased (median 8.4 pmol/L vs. 5.3 pmol/L, 808±473 pmol/L vs. 660±472 pmol/L, both P<0.0001), along with great improvement of AIR (5 585±3 441 pmol·L~(-1)·min~(-1) vs. 4 444±3 642 pmol·L~(-1)·min~(-1), P<0.0001). The level of FINS and HOMA IR was also markedly reduced (108±65 pmol/L vs. 166±115 pmol/L, P = 0.002; 3.8±2.3 vs. 6.0±4.2, P = 0.001). In contrast, there were modest declining in acute insulin response (AIR: 4 313~1 943 pmol·L~(-1)·min~(-1) vs. 5 362±2 861 pmol·L~(-1).min~(-1); C_(INS,MAX)/FINS: median 4.6 vs. 7.0, P= 0.01; △C_(INS): 641±286 pmol/L, vs. 720±321 pmol/L, P= 0.003 9) and increasing HOMA IR (7.8±4.2 vs. 5.6±3.2, P<0.000 1) in control group after 3-month follow-up. The improvement of AIR was correlated with the decreasing of plasma FFA and TG (r=0.41, 0.36, P = 0.002, 0.014), but no correlation with the changing of FPG and HOMA IR. [Conclusions] These results indicated that sbort-term lipid-lowering treatment with fenofibrate evidently improved acute insulin response and alleviated insulin resistance in subjects with impaired glucose metabolism and hypertriglyceridemia. Moreover, the improvement of insulin secretion capacity may be mainly due to the relieving of iipotoxity resulting from finofibrate.

Thirty six patients with hypertriglyceridemia and impaired glucose regulation or newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes, whose fasting plasma glucose was ≤8.0 mmol/L, were treated by fenofibrate for 3 months. Lipid profile, insulin during intravenous glucose tolerance test and oral glucose tolerance test ( including glucose) were measured before and after treatment After treatment, lipid profile was significantly improved. Insulinogenic index (△I30/△G30) and acute insulin response were significantly increased (98. 9vs. 129. 2, 3558.9 vs. 4783. 3 pmol · L - 1 · min - 1, respectively, P < 0. 05 ). Fasting insulin and insulin resistant index in homeostasis model assessment ( HOMA IR) decreased ( 128. 6 vs. 84. 8 pmol/L, 4. 8 vs.3.0, respectively, P <0. 05 ). The improvement of insulin secretory function was more significant in patients with higher triglyceride (TG > 3. 3 mmol/L). These results indicate that short-term lipid-lowering treatment with fenofibrate can improve β-cell function and insulin resistance. Patients with higher triglyceride are likely to achieve more benefit from lipid-lowering treatment.
