Abstract EN
Hypertriglyceridemia is an important risk factor associated with insulin resistance and β-cell dysfunction.
This study investigated the effects of hypertriglyceridemia and fenofibrate treatment on insulin sensitivity and β-cell function in subjects with normal glucose tolerance.
A total of 1974 subjects with normal glucose tolerance were divided into the normal TG group (NTG group, n = 1 302 ) and hypertriglyceridemia group (HTG group, n = 672 ).
Next, 92 patients selected randomly from 672 patients with hypertriglyceridemia were assigned to a 24-week fenofibrate treatment.
The HTG group had increased waist circumference (WC), body mass index (BMI), homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), and homeostasis model assessment of β-cell function (HOMA-β) and decreased high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) compared with the NTG group (all P < 0.01 ).
The 24-week fenofibrate treatment significantly decreased the WC, BMI, TG, HOMA-IR, and HOMA-β levels and increased the HDL-C levels in the patients with hypertriglyceridemia (WC, BMI, and HOMA-IR: P < 0.05 ; TG, HDL-C, and HOMA-β: P < 0.01 ).
The fenofibrate treatment significantly alleviated insulin resistance and reduced the secreting load of β-cells in the hypertriglyceridemia patients with normal glucose tolerance.
