ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) protein is a pivotal regulator of cholesterol and phospholipid efflux from cells to high-density lipoprotein (HDL) particles. Pancreatic ABCA1 functions in beta cell cholesterol homeostasis and affects insulin secretion. We investigated the effect of pemafibrate (K-877), a novel selective PPARα modulator (SPPARMα), on pancreatic ABCA1 expression. In vivo experiment, mice were divided into four treatment groups, namely, normal food plus placebo, high fat diet (HFD) plus placebo, normal food plus K-877 (0.3 mg/kg/day), or HFD plus K-877 (0.3 mg/kg/day), and treated for eight weeks. The results in vitro experiment indicate that K-877 treatment increased levels of ABCA1 mRNA, as well as protein, subsequently reduced the cellular cholesterol content in INS-1 cells. PPARα specific antagonist GW6471 attenuate K-877 induced ABCA1 expression in INS-1 cells. ABCA1 promoter activity increased with K-877 treatment at concentration 1 μM and 10 μM. Glucose-stimulated insulin secretion was ameliorated by K-877 treatment in INS-1 cells and isolated mouse islets. Although the expression of ABCA1 was reduced in mice with HFD treatment, both ABCA1 protein and mRNA levels were increased in mice with K-877 treatment. K-877 treatment improved glucose intolerance induced by HFD in mice. These findings raise the possibility that K-877 may affect insulin secretion by controlling ABCA1 expression in pancreatic beta cells.},
