背景氯贝特的历史可以追溯到20世纪50年代初。高夫曼是加州大学伯克利校区的物理学家,他发表的一篇论文表明,冠心病患者的血浆胆固醇浓度很高[1]。这些研究基于超速离心分析,显示了一种独特的脂蛋白模式。来自纽约的巴尔用冷降水方法证实了这一点[2]。爱丁堡的George Boyd开发了一种使用纸电泳法的简单微量分析方法[3],1953年,我们在欧洲发表了第一篇论文,报告称与年龄匹配的对照组相比,冠心病患者的胆固醇浓度更高,尤其是年轻患者[4]。
BackgroundThe start of the story of clofibrate goes back to the early 1950s. Gofman, a physicist in the Berkeley Campus of the University of California, published a paper suggesting that patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) have high plasma concentrations of cholesterol [1]. These studies were based on ultracentrifugal analysis showing a distinctive lipoprotein pattern. Barr from New York confirmed this using a cold precipitation method [2]. George Boyd in Edinburgh developed a simple micromethod of analysis using paper electrophoresis [3] and in 1953 we published the first paper in Europe reporting that patients with CHD have higher concentrations of cholesterol, particularly the younger ones, when compared with an age-matched control group [4].
