A disease caused by abnormal metabolic processes which may be inherited or acquired.

Generation of adipose tissue and adipocytes

The invention provides novel methods by which adipose tissue, preadipocytes, and adipocytes can be generated for research purposes, and methods for identifying cell populations that can proliferate and differentiate into adipocytes in vivo. The invention further provides a means for the in vivo derivation of “designer” or “customized” adipose tissue, preadipocytes, and adipocytes. Also provided are methods for identifying agents that affect adipocytes and adipose tissue, as well as the agents themselves. In particular, the present invention allows for creation of tissues and cells that can be used to screen for agents useful for treating human disorders associated with adipose tissue, including obesity, metabolic syndrome, and diabetes.

Method and device for utilizing analyte levels to assist in the treatment of diabetes

A health-monitoring device assesses the health of a user based on levels of two analytes in a biological fluid. A first analyte that is utilized to assess a user's health is a fat metabolism analyte, such as ketones, free fatty acids and glycerol, which is indicative of fat metabolism. A second analyte that is utilized is a glucose metabolism analyte, such as glucose. The levels of the two analytes may be used to assess insulin sensitivity, to detect both recent hypoglycemia and the cause of high glucose levels, and / or to guide therapeutic intervention. The dual analyte model may calculate a discrepancy between an actual insulin activity level and a theoretical insulin activity level. The dual analyte model of the present invention may be used to identify individuals at risk for metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance and non-insulin dependent diabetes, and allows monitoring of the progression of those disease states, as well as progress made by therapeutic interventions.
