Clofibrate reversal of platelet hypersensitivity in hyperbetalipoproteinemia.
Platelet function was evaluated in 29 patients with familial hyperbetalipoproteinemia; 17 were untreated and 12 were receiving clofibrate (Atromid-S). In comparison with 26 normal subjects, the untreated patients aggregated in response to 1/3 the concentration of adenosine diphosphate (ADP), '/25 the concentration of epinephrine, and '/4 the concentration of collagen. Treatment with clofibrate,...
متن کاملPlatelet hypersensitivity induced by cholesterol incorporation.
Platelets from individuals with familial hypercholesterolemia show increased sensitivity to the aggregating atents, epinephrine and ADP. Since the mechanism of this abnormal sensitivity is unknown, we examined, in vitro, the influence of the plasma lipid environment on the function of platelets. The composition of plasma lipids was altered by the addition of sonicated cholesterol-dipalmitoyl le...
متن کاملReversal of clofibrate-induced cholesterol oversaturation of bile with chenodeoxycholic acid.
Giving clofibrate 2 g daily to seven patients significantly increased the biliary cholesterol concentration while the proportion of bile acids fell. Five patients on established clofibrate treatment were given 750 mg of chenodeoxycholic acid (CDCA) daily for one month. Biliary lipid analysis after the CDCA treatment showed a significant fall in the proportion of cholesterol and a rise in that o...
متن کاملPlatelet kinetic studies in patients with hyperlipoproteinemia: effects of clofibrate therapy.
Studies of platelet and fibrinogen kinetics in 27 patients with hyperlipoproteinemia and 28 control subjects demonstrated shortened platelet survival and increased platelet turnover in seven patients with type III and 10 patients with type IV-V hyperlipoproteinemia (p less than 0.01). There was no correlation between platelet survival time and specific lipid levels, vascular disease, sex or age...
متن کاملInflux of cholesterol into plasma in rabbits with fasting hyperbetalipoproteinemia.
New Zealand white rabbits exhibited as much as a threefold increase in plasma cholesterol but no change in hepatic cholesterol when fasted for 7-9 days. Agarose electrophoresis and ultracentrifugation of plasma samples showed that only low density lipoprotein increased during fasting. Fasting changed the composition of the low density lipoprotein by increasing the percentage of cholesterol and ...
