Abstract excerpt
Fibrates and their receptor, namely peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α (PPARα), have been reported to regulate bile acid (BA) synthesis and transport. However, the effect of fibrate treatment and PPARα activation on BA homeostasis remains controversial. In this study, both wild-type (WT) and PPARα-null male mice were treated with clofibrate (CLOF) for 4 days to evaluate the effects of short-term PPARα...
