Pemafibrate (K-877) is an oral peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-α agonist for the treatment of hyperlipidaemia, EC50 on Gal4hPPARα = 1 nM [1].

Pemafibrate (10 µM, 24 h) regulated the expression of several target genes that code for proteins involved in carbohydrate and lipid metabolism, in primary human hepatocytes and the mouse liver [2]. Pemafibrate (50 nM, 24h) activated PPAR-α transcription activity and more effectively than fenofibrate and pirinixic acid (Wy14643) [3].

Pemafibrate (0.001% in MF diets for 1 week) significantly reduced plasma triglyceride and total cholesterol levels, increased plasma HDL cholesterol levels, regulated gene expression related to triglyceride and HDL cholesterol metabolism in the liver, and regulated cholesterol and triglyceride metabolic gene expression in the small intestine in mice [4]. Pemafibrate also promoted cholesterol efflux and reverse cholesterol transport, exerted anti-inflammatory activity, and decreased atherosclerotic lesions [1]. Pemafibrate was more effective than fenofibrate at suppressing the postprandial increase of chylomicrons and the accumulation of chylomicron remnants, thereby attenuating postprandial hypertriglyceridaemia [5].
