Inhibition of fatty acid biosynthesis by bezafibrate in different rat cells.

Abstract:

:Bezafibrate is one of the main drugs used in the treatment of human hyperlipemic diseases. Its action on the biosynthesis of fatty acids has been studied and the following conclusions have been drawn: (1) Lipogenesis from glucose is inhibited in hepatocytes and adipocytes isolated from "refed" rats previously treated with bezafibrate. (2) Lipogenesis from glucose is inhibited by bezafibrate in hepatocytes and adipocytes isolated from "refed" rats. (3) Lipogenesis from glucose is also inhibited by bezafibrate in acini isolated from lactating rats. These results show that bezafibrate is an inhibitor of fatty acid synthesis.
