Embodiment 1

[0019] The therapeutic effect of embodiment 1 febuxostat on Cushing's syndrome

[0020] 1. Materials and methods

[0021] 1.1 Experimental objects and grouping

[0022] 20 patients with Cushing's syndrome were randomly hospitalized (Cushing group), including 6 males and 14 females, with an average age of (30.2±8.2) years and a medical history of 9 months to 15 years. In the past 6 months, he has not taken drugs that affect blood sugar, blood lipids, and blood uric acid metabolism. There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in terms of ethnicity, gender, age, blood pressure level, body mass index (BMI) and other general information (P>0.05), and they were comparable.

[0023] 1.2 Treatment methods

[0024] For the Cushing group, febuxostat was administered orally, once a day, 80 mg each time. Fasting venous blood was collected for 12 h in the morning before administration and 2 months after administration, and blood UA, fasting blood glucose (F...

Abstract

The invention relates to a novel use of a drug, in particular to application of febuxostat in the preparation of drugs to treat or prevent Cushing's syndrome. Researches herein show that a patient with Cushing's syndrome has insulin resistance, and uric acid is closely related to obesity, hypertension, glucose and lipid metabolism disorder, and metabolic syndromes. Researches discover that with the increase in the level of blood uric acid, occurrence of the metabolic syndromes (including Cushing's syndrome) may increase, and the metabolic syndromes are caused. Febuxostat acting as a xanthine oxidoreductase inhibitor can reduce effectively the level of serum urate and can further treat or assist in treating Cushing's syndrome.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a new application of febuxostat, in particular to the application of febuxostat in adjuvant medicine for Cushing's syndrome. Background technique [0002] Cushing's Syndrome is a general term for diseases caused by excessive secretion of glucocorticoids (mainly cortisol) by the adrenal glands caused by various etiologies. Stretch marks, high blood pressure, secondary diabetes and osteoporosis, etc. According to the etiology and pathological changes of the pituitary and adrenal glands, it can be divided into the following three types: iatrogenic cortisolism, pituitary bilateral adrenal hyperplasia, and adrenal cortical tumors. The most common one is the clinical type caused by the hypersecretion of pituitary adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), so it is also called hypercortisolism. ACTH stimulates the excessive secretion of adrenal gland hormones, which can lead to severe cardiovascular and metabolic diseases and incre...
