Gemfibrozil(Cas 25812-30-0) Usage
Description |
Gemfibrozil is a lipid-regulating agent used primarily to lower triglyceride levels in patients with hypertriglyceridemia and dyslipidemia. It is indicated for reducing the risk of developing coronary heart disease (CHD), particularly in patients with high lipid levels who are at risk for atherosclerosis but do not have existing CHD symptoms. Gemfibrozil works by activating peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARα and PPARγ), which play a key role in lipid metabolism. |
Chemical properties |
Physical Appearance: Crystallized from hexane, with a melting point of 61-63°C and a boiling point of 158-159°C at reduced pressure. Mechanism of Action: Gemfibrozil activates PPARα, increasing the oxidation of fatty acids and reducing the production of triglycerides. This action results in a decrease in very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol levels while promoting an increase in high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol. |
Uses |
Gemfibrozil is effective in reducing very high serum triglyceride levels, making it useful in the management of hypertriglyceridemia and prevention of related complications such as pancreatitis. By lowering lipid levels, Gemfibrozil helps reduce the risk of atherosclerosis and coronary heart disease in high-risk patients, especially those without prior symptoms but with elevated lipid levels. Hangzhou Huarong Pharm Co., Ltd. established since 2009 , has been always focusing on supplying products and services to our clients in the field of small molecule drug.

Our goal is to become a world-class leading company to support life science innovation and manufacturing. |
Lipid Regulation | Gemfibrozil acts as an agonist of PPARα and PPARγ, which regulate the expression of genes involved in lipid metabolism. This results in enhanced clearance of triglyceride-rich particles from the blood and reduced synthesis of VLDL. It also promotes the synthesis of HDL, known as "good cholesterol." |

A controlled trial of gemfibrozil in the treatment of patients with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis
Metin Basaranoglu1 basaranoglu@hotmail.com ∙ Ozer Acbay2 ∙ Abdullah Sonsuz1

We read with interest the review article by James & Day (1) about non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). We agree that, as mentioned in the article, NASH is a progressive necroinflammatory liver disease which is frequently seen in clinical practice (2–6). Although a few drugs have been tested in patients with NASH, there is currently no accepted form of medical therapy (7).
Mechanism of action of gemfibrozil on lipoprotein metabolism.
K Saku, P S Gartside, B A Hynd, and M L Kashyap
The Journal of Clinical Investigation, 1985
Each patient was admitted to the Clinical Research Center with metabolic kitchen facilities, for investigation of HDL and TG metabolism immediately before and after 8 wk of gemfibrozil treatment. Gemfibrozil significantly increased plasma HDL cholesterol, apolipoprotein (apo) AI, and apo AII by 36%, 29%, and 38% from base line, respectively. Plasma TG decreased by 54%.
Gemfibrozil greatly increases plasma concentrations of cerivastatin

Clinical Pharmacology & Therapeutics, Volume72, Issue6 December 2002 Pages 685-691
In a randomized, double-blind crossover study, 10 healthy volunteers took 600 mg gemfibrozil or placebo twice daily for 3 days. On day 3, each subject ingested a single 0.3-mg dose of cerivastatin. Plasma concentrations of cerivastatin, its metabolites, and gemfibrozil were measured up to 24 hours.
