This invention relates to a process of synthesis and composition of open chain (ring), closed ring, linear branched and or substituted polyamines, polyamine derived tyrosine phosphatase inhibitors and PPAR partial agonists/partial antagonists via a series of substitution reactions and optimizing the bioavailability and biological activities of the compounds. Polyamines prevent the toxicty of neutoxins and diabetogenic toxins including paraquat, methyphenyl pyridine radical, rotenone, diazoxide, streptozotocin and alloxan. These polyamines can be to treat neurological, cardiovascular, endocrine acquired and inherited mitochondrial DNA damage diseases and other disorders in mammalian subjects, and more specifically to the therapy of Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, Lou Gehrig's disease, Binswanger's disease, Olivopontine Cerebellar Degeneration, Lewy Body disease, Diabetes, Stroke, Atherosclerosis, Myocardial Ischemia, Cardiomyopathy, Nephropathy, Ischemia, Glaucoma, Presbycussis, Cancer, Osteoporosis, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Inflammatory Bowel Disease, Multiple Sclerosis and as Antidotes to Toxin Exposure.

This invention is directed to a method of treating insulin resistance syndrome (IRS), hypertension and/or type 2 diabetes in a mammal comprising administering to said mammal a cGMP PDE9 inhibitor or a pharmaceutical composition thereof. This invention is also directed to such methods wherein said cGMP PDE9 inhibitor is used in combination with other agents to treat IRS, hypertension and/or type 2 diabetes.

Methods and formulations for treating metabolic disorders in humans using epimetabolic shifters, multidimensional intracellular molecules or environmental influencers are described.

1,3-Azole derivatives, pharmaceutical compositions thereof and methods for regulating the function of retinoid-related receptors with 1,3-azole derivatives are disclosed. Such regulation may be useful for preventing or treating diabetes, preventing or treating hyperlipidemia, preventing or treating impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) or for preventing transition from impaired glucose tolerance to diabetes.

The present invention provides methods for the prevention or treatment of one or more vascular complication(s) in a subject at risk of developing diabetes mellitus, impaired glucose tolerance and/or hyperglycemia or a subject suffering from diabetes mellitus, impaired glucose tolerance and/or hyperglycemia, wherein an amount of a composition effective to inhibit, repress, delay or otherwise reduce expression and/or activity and/or level of TXNIP and/or an amount of a composition effective to induce, enhance or otherwise increase expression and/or activity and/or level of TRX is/are administered to a subject in need thereof. The present invention also provides methods for identifying and isolating modulators of TXNIP expression and/or activity and/or level and/or TRX expression and/or activity and/or level for use in such therapeutic and prophylactic methods.

Provided are picolinamide and pyrimidine-4-carboxamide compounds, a method for preparing the same, a pharmaceutical composition containing the same, and a medical use using the compound as an agent for preventing, regulating, and treating diseases related to regulation of glucocorticoids by using selective inhibitory activity of the compound for an 11β-HSD1 enzyme. The picolinamide and pyrimidine-4-carboxamide compounds of the present invention are selective inhibitors of human-derived 11β-HSD1 enzymes, and are useful in an agent for preventing, regulating, and treating diseases related to glucocorticoid regulation in which human-derived 11β-HSD1 enzymes are involved, for example, metabolic syndromes such as, type 1 and type 2 diabetes, diabetes later complications, latent autoimmune diabetes adult (LADA), insulin tolerance syndromes, obesity, impaired glucose tolerance (IGT), impaired fasting glucose (IFG), damaged glucose tolerance, dyslipidemia, atherosclerosis, hypertension, etc.

A method for protection of a mammal that has impaired glucose tolerance or early stage diabetes mellitus from developing overt or insulin dependent diabetes comprises administering an orally effective dose of a pharmaceutical formulation comprising insulin at nighttime, e.g., at or shortly before bedtime.

It is intended to provide a noninvasive method of conveniently detecting mild impaired glucose tolerance and/or insulin hyposecretion at the early stage with the use of an enzyme. Namely, mild impaired glucose tolerance and/or hyposecretion at the early stage are detected by quantifying myoinositol secreted into the urine before loading glucose and after loading glucose for a definite period of time with the use of a reagent and comparing the increase (or the increase ratio) in the myoinositol content thus measured with a characteristic level which has been preliminarily determined in normal subjects.

The present invention is directed to cycloalkenyl derivatives, pharmaceutical compositions containing them and their use in the treatment of disorders and conditions modulated by the GPR120 and/or GPR40 receptors. More particularly, the compounds of the present invention are agonists of GPR120 and/or GPR40, useful in the treatment of, for example, obesity, Type II Diabetes Mellitus, dyslipidemia, etc.

The present invention provides a method for treatment of diabetes, comprising administering a pitavastatin, and in combination therewith, enalapril or a salt thereof.

Disclosed is the use of a composition comprising docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and/or arachidonic acid (ARA) in human subjects that are on the typical ‘Western-type” high-fat high-sugar diet. It was found, in a humanized animal model, that said composition is capable of compensating for one or more of the adverse health effects of said diet. Particularly, an effect was found in body weight reduction, without a lowering of food intake. The composition can be administered as an oral (pharmaceutical) dosage unit, as a nutritional supplement, or as a component in a food or drink.
