Abstract

Clofibrate treatment decreased drastically the activity of serum postheparin lipoprotein lipase of rats fed with fat-free test diet but had no effect on hepatic lipase. 3 weeks' treatment was followed by a significant fall in serum cholesterol caused by a marked decrease in HDL-cholesterol. Clofibrate decreased in vitro synthesis of cholesterol and fatty acids in jejunal villous cells but not in the crypt cells.
