Solution Overview

Problem

Current treatments for increasing mitochondrial activity and improving adiponectin production are scarce or ineffective in addressing various cell-related diseases and disorders.

Innovation Solution

A pharmaceutical composition comprising a carbohydrate capable of donating multiple sulphates, such as pentosan polysulphate, combined with a PPARγ agonist like indomethacin or pioglitazone, in specific molar ratios, to enhance mitochondrial activity and adiponectin production, offering a synergistic effect that reduces toxic side effects.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If current treatments are used to increase mitochondrial activity and improve adiponectin production, then therapeutic effects are achieved, but toxic side effects occur and treatment effectiveness is limited

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetreatment effectivenessVSAvoidtoxic side effects
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent combines two distinct compounds with different mechanisms of action: a PPARγ agonist (which activates peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma to regulate gene expression) and a PPARα/δ agonist (which activates peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha/delta to enhance fatty acid oxidation). This synergistic combination achieves therapeutic effects at lower doses, reducing toxic side effects while improving treatment effectiveness for mitochondrial dysfunction and adiponectin production deficiencies.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

2Reliability

If higher dosages of single compounds are used to achieve therapeutic effects, then treatment effectiveness increases, but toxic side effects increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetreatment effectivenessVSAvoidtoxic side effects
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSObject-generated harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent changes the dosing parameters by using a combination of two compounds at lower individual dosages rather than a single compound at high dosage. The synergistic interaction between PPARγ agonist and PPARα/δ agonist allows achieving the same or better therapeutic effect with reduced total dosage, thereby minimizing toxic side effects while maintaining treatment effectiveness.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Adaptability or versatility

If existing pharmaceutical approaches are used, then some therapeutic benefits are achieved, but the treatments are scarce and ineffective for various cell-related diseases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetreatment applicabilityVSAvoidtreatment effectiveness
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent develops a multi-functional pharmaceutical composition that addresses multiple aspects of mitochondrial dysfunction and metabolic disorders simultaneously. The dual-agonist approach targets both PPARγ (for adiponectin production and glucose regulation) and PPARα/δ (for fatty acid oxidation and mitochondrial function), making the treatment versatile and effective for various cell-related diseases including metabolic syndrome, cardiovascular diseases, and neurodegenerative conditions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)
