Embodiment 1
[0112] Effect of CT-1 on body weight
[0113] Obese mice were obtained by ingesting a high fat diet (HFD, 60% fat) for 3 months. Intravenous injection of rCT-1 (0.2 mg / kg / day) for 6 consecutive days resulted in a decrease in body weight ( figure 1 ). The doses used in this study did not induce febrile reactions (rectal temperature was measured daily during treatment).
[0114] like figure 1 The obese mice fed with the indicated HFD and injected with the aforementioned 0.2 mg / kg / day dose of rCT-1 for 6 consecutive days observed a decrease in body weight, which was due to the appetite-suppressing effect of this cytokine ( figure 2 ). The graph shows the calorie intake over six days of treatment for the rCT-1 treated group and the corresponding control group treated intravenously with physiological serum.
[0115] Similarly, continuous 6-day intravenous injection of rCT-1 (0.2 mg / kg / day) also caused weight loss ( image 3 ). The doses administered in this experiment did n...

[0118] CT-1 blood sugar lowering effect
[0119] To determine whether acute intravenous injection of a single dose of rCT-1 (10 μg) into C57BL / 6 mice (3 months old) would reduce baseline blood glucose levels, blood glucose levels were measured after 1 hr treatment with rCT-1 and saline serum. like Figure 5 As shown in A, rCT-1 significantly lowered the blood glucose level. Mechanisms of blood glucose lowering are not due to elevated blood insulin levels (eg, Figure 5 B), because the insulin levels of animals treated with rCT-1 and saline serum were not significantly different. Results are expressed as mean ± SE. n=5 animals per group, *p Figure 5 C shows a representative Western).
[0120] Acute administration of a single dose (10 μg) of rCT-1 suppressed blood glucose elevation after a high glucose diet. In order to study the effect of rCT-1 on postprandial blood glucose, mice (C57BL / 6, 3 months old) were used to carry out the following experiments: the mice were given ...

[0131] Different effects of CT-1 and CNTF
[0132] Figure 16 Shown are the results of experiments performed in rat adipocyte primary cultures to determine the ability of rCT-1 and CNTF to regulate adipocyte leptin secretion. Figure 16 A shows that rCT-1 treatment (72 hours) is able to suppress both basal and insulin-stimulated secretion of leptin (1.6 nM). However, these effects were not observed at the same concentration of CNTF ( Figure 16 B).
[0133] Figure 17Shown are the results of experiments performed in primary cultures of rat adipocytes to determine the ability of CT-1 and CNTF to regulate lipolysis in the presence or absence of insulin. The figure shows that CT-1 is able to induce the release of glycerol (measured by lipolysis) and inhibits the antilipolytic activity of insulin, whereas CNTF is not. These data suggest that CT-1 is able to mobilize fat and, as previously shown, increase beta oxidation in muscle, suggesting that this cytokine can reduce fat a...
