gemfibrozil and Hyperlipoproteinemia Type III

gemfibrozil has been researched along with Hyperlipoproteinemia Type III in 14 studies

Hyperlipoproteinemia Type III: An autosomal recessively inherited disorder characterized by the accumulation of intermediate-density lipoprotein (IDL or broad-beta-lipoprotein). IDL has a CHOLESTEROL to TRIGLYCERIDES ratio greater than that of VERY-LOW-DENSITY LIPOPROTEINS. This disorder is due to mutation of APOLIPOPROTEINS E, a receptor-binding component of VLDL and CHYLOMICRONS, resulting in their reduced clearance and high plasma levels of both cholesterol and triglycerides.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Nineteen adult patients with type III hyperlipoproteinemia (HLP) and homozygosity for apolipoprotein (apo) E2 were treated with the 3-hydroxy-3-methyl glutaryl coenzyme A (HMG CoA) reductase inhibitor simvastatin (20 or 40 mg per day) alone or in combination with the fibrate derivative gemfibrozil (450 mg per day) during a 30-week outpatient study."9.07The influence of simvastatin alone or in combination with gemfibrozil on plasma lipids and lipoproteins in patients with type III hyperlipoproteinemia.

( Eichinger, M; Feussner, G; Ziegler, R, 1992)
"In patients with type III hyperlipoproteinemia gemfibrozil is more effective in reducing total triglyceride and VLDL lipid levels than simvastatin, and simvastatin is better in reducing LDL cholesterol than gemfibrozil is."2.69Comparison of the hypolipidemic effect of gemfibrozil versus simvastatin in patients with type III hyperlipoproteinemia. ( Cenarro, A; Civeira, F; Ferrando, J; Garcia-Otín, AL; Mozas, P; Pocoví, M; Puzo, J, 1999)
"Familial dysbetalipoproteinemia is an inherited disorder in which both cholesterol and triglycerides are elevated in the plasma of the blood, which pre-disposes people to coronary artery disease and peripheral vascular disease."1.35Familial dysbetalipoproteinemia: a potentially fatal disorder. ( Bari, AU; Hashim, R; Hussain, M; Rahman, SB, 2008)
"Treatment with clofibrate and gemfibrozil both resulted in significant reductions in the plasma concentrations of total cholesterol (40% and 54%), VLDL cholesterol (59% and 79%) and total triglycerides (48% and 70%), as well as a significant increase in HDL cholesterol (9% and 7%)."1.29Comparative effects of gemfibrozil and clofibrate in type III hyperlipoproteinemia. ( Illingworth, DR; Larsen, ML; O'Malley, JP, 1994)
"Gemfibrozil treatment in patients with familial dysbetalipoproteinemia resulted in a marked reduction of the concentrations of large VLDL, small VLDL, and IDL, and an increase in the levels of HDL, apo A-I, and apo A-II."1.29Changes of lipoprotein profile in familial dysbetalipoproteinemia with gemfibrozil. ( Leuven, JA; Smelt, AH; van 't Hooft, FM; van der Laarse, A; Vroom, TF; Zhao, SP, 1994)
"In this study, 3 patients with familial dysbetalipoproteinemia were treated with lovastatin, and kinetics for apolipoprotein B (apo B) were determined in control and drug treatment periods."1.27Lovastatin therapy in familial dysbetalipoproteinemia: effects on kinetics of apolipoprotein B. ( East, C; Grundy, SM; Vega, GL, 1988)
"Tuboeruptive xanthomata, palmar xanthoma, and xanthoma striata palmare subsided with treatment."1.27Treatment of type III hyperlipoproteinemia with gemfibrozil to retard progression of coronary artery disease. ( Dodge, HT; Kostis, JB; Kuo, PT; Moreyra, AB; Wilson, AC, 1988)
