Fenofibrate-Induced Muscular Toxicity Is Associated with a Metabolic Shift Limited to Type-1 Muscles in Rats

Abstract

Morphological changes and mRNA expression levels in type-1 predominant soleus and type-2 predominant tensor fasciae latae muscles of rats treated with fenofibrate were investigated. After fenofibrate by oral gavage at 300 mg/kg/day for 28 days, degeneration/necrosis and regeneration of muscle fibers, cellular infiltration, and fibrosis were seen in soleus muscle. Additionally, expression of PDK4, CPT1-M, CPT2, and FACO mRNAs was increased. In contrast, no morphological changes or mRNA induction were apparent in tensor fasciae latae muscle. These data suggest that sensitivity to fenofibrate-induced muscle toxicity differs among muscles, with only type-1 fibers being susceptible. The up-regulation of PDK4, CPTs and FACO mRNA expression in soleus muscle indicates that the energy source is switched from glucose to fatty acids, and this might be related to the observed fenofibrate-induced muscular toxicity.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
