Disease relevance of Cetaben

  • The human hepatoma cell line HepG2 was used to study the effect of cetaben, a non-fibrate hypolipidemic drug, on cell morphology and vesicle distribution [1].
  • Cetaben-induced changes on the morphology and peroxisomal enzymes in MH1C1 rat hepatoma cells and HepG2 human hepatoblastoma cells [2].
  • Cetaben caused 1 death at 200 mg/kg per day and decreases in body weight gain and food consumption at 50 mg/kg per day or more [3].

Chemical compound and disease context of Cetaben

 

Biological context of Cetaben

  • At pH 8, the relationship between cetaben sodium solubility and surfactant concentration delineated apparent saturable kinetics; at pH 4.9, the relationship between the two parameters was linear [6].
  • 8. The results obtained suggest that cetaben represents an exceptional type of peroxisome proliferator, specifically affecting peroxisomes, without having a negative influence on the processes of peroxisome biogenesis [7].
