clofibric acid and Obesity

clofibric acid has been researched along with Obesity in 18 studies

Clofibric Acid: An antilipemic agent that is the biologically active metabolite of CLOFIBRATE.
clofibric acid : A monocarboxylic acid that is isobutyric acid substituted at position 2 by a p-chlorophenoxy group. It is a metabolite of the drug clofibrate.

Obesity: A status with BODY WEIGHT that is grossly above the recommended standards, usually due to accumulation of excess FATS in the body. The standards may vary with age, sex, genetic or cultural background. In the BODY MASS INDEX, a BMI greater than 30.0 kg/m2 is considered obese, and a BMI greater than 40.0 kg/m2 is considered morbidly obese (MORBID OBESITY).

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" In the present study the influence of a four-week daily oral administration of 2 mg/kg body weight ciprofibrate (CAS 52214-84-3) or of 100 mg/kg body weight clofibric acid (CAS 882-09-7) was compared to that of the respective doses of their newly synthesized glycine conjugates in adult male lean and obese Zucker rats."3.74Ciprofibrate, clofibric acid and respective glycinate derivatives. Effects of a four-week treatment on male lean and obese Zucker rats. ( Deufel, T; Fleck, C; Karge, E; Lupp, A; Oelschlägers, H, 2008)
"The metabolic syndrome is a clustering of risk factors including central obesity, insulin resistance, dyslipidaemia and hypertension."2.43Dyslipidaemia, hypercoagulability and the metabolic syndrome. ( Athyros, VG; Kakafika, AI; Karagiannis, A; Liberopoulos, EN; Mikhailidis, DP, 2006)
