摘要:
The present invention relates to a method of decreasing body weight in a patient. The method includes the step of administering a therapeutically effective amount of a type-5 selective somatostatin agonist to the patient.
摘要:
A method of determining the ability of a compound to both bind to somatostatin type-5 receptor (“SSTR-5”) and inhibit amylin release. The method includes obtaining a preparation, either a cell preparation or a membrane preparation, which contains SSTR-5; incubating the preparation, the compound, and a SSTR-5 ligand, at least one of the ligand and the compound being detectably labeled; determining the ability of the compound to compete against the ligand for binding to SSTR-5; if and only if the compound is determined to be able to bind to SSTR-5, obtaining pancreatic cells; incubating the compound, the pancreatic cells, and an amylin release stimulator under conditions in which the amylin release stimulator would induce release of amylin from the pancreatic cells; and determining the ability of the compound to inhibit amylin release. Also disclosed is a method of treating hyperamylinemia with a ligand selective for SSTR-5.
摘要:
The present invention addresses the problem of finding a compound having both PPAR activation activity and angiotensin receptor antagonistic activity. The present invention is a benzo- or pyrido-imidazole derivative represented by general formula (I), a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or a ester or amide thereof (where A is biphenyl methyl-imidazolyl, biphenyl methyl-benzimidazolyl, or the like, B is divalent benzimidazolyl or the like, C is carboxyl or the like, E is divalent phenyl, naphthyl, or the like, G is a dangling bond, oxygen, or the like, Q is oxygen or sulfur, n is an integer from 1 to 6, p is an integer from 1 to 6, V is a dangling bond, oxygen, or the like, and R is hydrogen, alkyl, or the like).
摘要:
The present invention relates to the use of CBD alone or in combination with another cannabinoid, in the manufacture of a pharmaceutical or neutraceutical formulation for use in controlling cholesterol levels in a subject. It also relates to the use of THCV alone or in combination with another cannabinoid, in the manufacture of a pharmaceutical or neutraceutical formulation for use in increasing energy expenditure in a subject. Furthermore the CBD alone or in combination with another cannabinoid or the THCV alone or in combination with another cannabinoid are used as part of a regime to manage or treat type I or II diabetes, obesity, dyslipidaemia, related metabolic disorders and cardiovascular disease.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a method of decreasing body weight in a patient. The method includes the step of administering a therapeutically effective amount of a somatostatin or a somatostatin agonist to said patient. A pharmaceutical/cosmetic composition comprises the somatostatin or somatostatin agonist. Such products are used to prepare such compositions for the reduction or body weight in a human or mammalian animal.
摘要:
The invention relates inter alia to pharmaceutical compositions containing an extract obtainable from a plant of the genus Trichocaulon or Hoodia having anti-diabetic activity; and to the use of such extracts and to compound (1) as herein defined and its analogues for the manufacture of medicaments having anti-diabetic activity.
