    Product Description

    Clinofibrate is a hypolipidemic agent.1 It inhibits HMG-CoA reductase (IC50 = 0.47 mM) and stimulates the S-indan-1-ol dehydrogenase activity of the human liver 3α-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase isoform AKR 1C4 in a concentration-dependent manner.2 Clinofibrate (10 and 30 mg/kg) reduces serum cholesterol and triglyceride levels in rats fed a normal chow pellet diet or a semisynthetic diet containing sucrose as the only carbohydrate source.

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
