Clinically Relevant Dose of Pemafibrate, a Novel Selective Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor α Modulator (SPPARMα), Lowers Serum Triglyceride Levels by Targeting Hepatic PPARα in Mice

Clinically Relevant Dose of Pemafibrate, a Novel Selective Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor α Modulator (SPPARMα), Lowers Serum Triglyceride Levels by Targeting Hepatic PPARα in Mice

Pemafibrate (PEM) is a novel lipid-lowering drug classified as a selective peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α (PPARα) modulator whose binding efficiency to PPARα is superior to that of fibrates. This agent is also useful for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and primary biliary cholangitis...
