Abstract:

Using rats with fructose-induced hypertriglyceridemia, an animal model of human hypertriglyceridemia, we investigated whether (+)-(S)-p-[1-(p-tert-butylphenyl)-2-oxo-4-pyrrolidinyl]-methoxybenzoic acid (S-2E), a novel anti-hyperlipidemic agent, reduced the elevated levels of triglyceride (TG) and non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C), and then whether it elevated HDL-C levels. At doses of 3-30 mg/kg, S-2E reduced elevated TG levels and non-HDL-C levels simultaneously in a dose-dependent manner after a week. Furthermore, S-2E treatment at 10 mg/kg for 4 weeks showed similar effects, while the elongation of intervals between feeding periods led to further increases in these levels. Interestingly, S-2E increased blood HDL-C levels after 4 weeks of treatment. It is therefore reasonable to assume that S-2E may be useful to improve dyslipidemia such as hypertriglyceridemia and low levels of HDL-C.
