trials have shown that fibrate treatment leads to a reduction of the

(PPAR
) that modulate risk factors related to atherosclerosis by acting at both systemic and
vascular levels. Here, we investigated the effect of treatment with the
PPAR
agonist fenofibrate (FF) on the development of atherosclerotic
lesions in apolipoprotein (apo) E-deficient mice and human apoA-I
transgenic apoE-deficient (hapoA-I Tg × apoE-deficient) mice fed
a Western diet. In apoE-deficient mice, plasma lipid levels were
increased by FF treatment with no alteration in the cholesterol
distribution profile. FF treatment did not reduce atherosclerotic
lesion surface area in the aortic sinus of 5-month-old apoE-deficient
mice. By contrast, FF treatment decreased total cholesterol and
esterified cholesterol contents in descending aortas of these mice, an
effect that was more pronounced in older mice exhibiting more advanced
lesions. Furthermore, FF treatment reduced MCP-1 mRNA levels in the
descending aortas of apoE-deficient mice, whereas ABCA-1 expression
levels were maintained despite a significant reduction of aortic
cholesterol content. In apoE-deficient mice expressing a human apoA-I
transgene, FF increased human apoA-I plasma and hepatic mRNA levels
without affecting plasma lipid levels. This increase in human apoA-I
expression was accompanied by a significant reduction in the lesion
surface area in the aortic sinus. These data indicate that the PPAR
agonist fenofibrate reduces atherosclerosis in these animal models of atherosclerosis.
