SKU: orb1309634

Description

Gemcabene (PD-72953) is a small molecule lipid-lowering agent with anti-inflammatory properties. It modulates lipid profiles by lowering LDL-C and triglycerides while raising HDL-C, and reduces inflammatory markers like C-reactive protein. Research applications include in vitro mechanistic studies and in vivo models of dyslipidemia and inflammation.
