The invention relates to a combination, such as a combined preparation or a pharmaceutical composition, respectively comprisinga renin inhibitor, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, andat least one therapeutic agent selected from the group consisting of(a) a specific anti-dyslipidemic agent and(b) a specific anti-obesity agentor, in each case, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

The present invention relates to a compound comprising a PYY peptide or a functional derivative thereof, which is coupled to a reactive group. Such a reactive group is capable of reacting on a blood component so as to form a stable covalent bond therewith. The present invention also relates to a conjugate comprising such a compound which is covalently bonded to a blood component. Moreover, the invention also relates to a method of enhancing, in a patient, the anti-obesity activity of a PYY peptide or functional derivative thereof.

A yeast extract or yeast-derived bioactive peptide having an activity of selectively inhibiting reuptake of serotonin and norepinephrine, which can be effectively used in preventing or treating various diseases related to reuptake of serotonin and norepinephrine, especially depression, anxiety, stress, fatigue and obesity are provided. Also, a yeast extract or yeast-derived bioactive peptide having activities as an anti-stress agent, an anti-fatigue agent, premenstrual syndrome (PMS) and menstrual pain relaxants, and a brain-neurotrophic factor, and a method for preparing the bioactive peptide are provided. The yeast extract or yeast-derived bioactive peptide is effective in relieving stress, nervousness, anxiety, tension, insomnia, fatigue, and imbalance in the autonomic nerve regulation. Therefore, the yeast extract or yeast-derived bioactive peptide is vailable as an anti-depression agent, an anti-anxiety agent, an anti-stress agent, an anti-fatigue agent, an anti-obesity agent, premenstrual syndrome and menstrual pain relaxants, a bain-neurotrophin, and a source of active foods having these activities.

The present invention provides pharmaceutical compositions and methods for the treatment of diabetes mellitus using combination therapy. The compositions relate to a compound of Formula I and an antidiabetic agent such as sulfonylureas, biguanides, glitazones, α-glucosidase inhibitors, potassium channel antagonists, aldose reductase inhibitors, glucagon antagonists, activators of RXR, insulin therapy or other anti-obesity agent. The methods include the administration of the combination of compound of Formula I with antidiabetic agent where the two components are delivered in a simultaneous manner, where the compound of Formula I is administered first, followed by the antidiabetic agent, as well as wherein the antidiabetic agent is delivered first followed by the compound of Formula I.

Disclosed herein are an anti-obesity agent from natural products based on angiogenesis inhibitory actions, and an angiogenesis inhibitor or a composition for inhibiting obesity, containing at least one selected from the group consisting of Psoraleae Semen extract, Siegesbeckiae Herba extract, and Corni Fructus extract. Because the Psoraleae Semen extract, Siegesbeckiae Herba extract, and Corni Fructus extract of the present invention exhibit angiogenesis inhibitory effects and obesity inhibitory effects, they may be usefully used as an agent for prevention and treatment of angiogenesis-related diseases or obesity.

Methods are provided for treating obesity or causing weight loss in a mammalian subject or patient, wherein a therapeutically effective amount of an SGLT2 inhibitor alone or optionally in combination with another anti-obesity agent, is administered to a mammalian subject or patient. In addition, a pharmaceutical composition is provided which comprises an SGLT2 inhibitor, alone or in combination with another anti-obesity agent, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier thereof.
