The invention comprises methods for diagnosing the risk of onset of type 1 diabetes and for preventing the onset of type 1 diabetes. The genetic background, metabolomes, antibodies and diversity of gut microbiota of an individual can be used for diagnosis.

The present invention provides an azulene derivative and a salt thereof, wherein an azulene ring is bonded to a benzene ring directly or via a lower alkylene which may be substituted with a halogen atom and the benzene ring is directly bonded to the glucose residue, and it is usable as a Na+-glucose cotransporter inhibitor, especially for a therapeutic and / or preventive agent for diabetes such as insulin-dependent diabetes (type 1 diabetes) and insulin-independent diabetes (type 2 diabetes), as well as diabetes-related diseases such as insulin-resistant diseases and obesity.

The present invention relates to a method of making novel dipeptidyl peptidase-IV ("DPP-IV') inhibitor compounds useful for treating, inter alia, diseases that are associated with proteins that are subject to processing by DPP-IV, such as Type 2 diabetes mellitus, metabolic syndrome (Syndrome X or insulin resistance syndrome), hyperglycemia, impaired glucose tolerance, glucosuria, metabolic acidosis, cataracts, diabetic neuropathy, diabetic nephropathy, diabetic retinopathy, diabetic cardiomyopathy, Type 1 diabetes, obesity, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, atherosclerosis, osteoporosis, osteopenia, frailty, bone loss, bone fracture, acute coronary syndrome, infertility due to polycystic ovary syndrome, short bowel syndrome and to prevent disease progression in Type 2 diabetes. The invention also relates to a method of making 3,3,4,4-tetrafluoropyrrolidine, a starting material utilized in the afore-mentioned method for preparing DPP-IV compounds.

A method for treating Type II diabetes by administering to an affected individual a combination of chromic tripicolinate and biotin. The two compounds are administered orally or parenterally at in daily dosages which provide between 50 and 1,000 mu g of chromium and between 25 mu g and 200 mg biotin, the amounts of chromium and biotin being selected together to provide a greater than additive effect.

The invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition according to the claim 1 comprising a glucopyranosyl-substituted benzene derivative in combination with a DPP IV inhibitor which is suitable in the treatment or prevention of one or more conditions selected from type 1 diabetes mellitus, type 2 diabetes mellitus, impaired glucose tolerance and hyperglycemia. In addition the present invention relates to methods for preventing or treating of metabolic disorders and related conditions.

The present invention provides compositions and methods for treating and / or preventing diseases and disorders associated with expression of PPAR γ and / or infiltration of macrophages into skeletal muscle tissue and / or white adipose tissue. The method treats such diseases and disorders with abscisic acid (ABA). Exemplary diseases and disorders include diabetes, including type 2 diabetes, prediabetes, glucose intolerance insulin resistance, and diseases and disorders involving the immune system, such as inflammation, including obesity-related inflammation, inflammatory bowel disease, type 1 diabetes, multiple sclerosis, allergies, asthma, cardiovascular disease, and arthritis.

Disclosed is a composition of matter of the formula(X1)a—(F1)d—(X2)b—(F2)e—(X3)c  (I)and multimers thereof, in which F1 and F2 are half-life extending moieties, and d and e are each independently 0 or 1, provided that at least one of d and e is 1; X1, X2, and X3 are each independently -(L)f-P-(L)g-, and f and g are each independently 0 or 1; P is a toxin peptide of no more than about 80 amino acid residues in length, comprising at least two intrapeptide disulfide bonds; L is an optional linker; and a, b, and c are each independently 0 or 1, provided that at least one of a, b and c is 1. Linkage to the half-life extending moiety or moieties increases the in vivo half-life of the toxin peptide, which otherwise would be quickly degraded. A pharmaceutical composition comprises the composition and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. Also disclosed are a DNA encoding the inventive composition of matter, an expression vector comprising the DNA, and a host cell comprising the expression vector. Methods of treating an autoimmune disorder, such as, but not limited to, multiple sclerosis, type 1 diabetes, psoriasis, inflammatory bowel disease, contact-mediated dermatitis, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, asthma, allergy, restinosis, systemic sclerosis, fibrosis, scleroderma, glomerulonephritis, Sjogren syndrome, inflammatory bone resorption, transplant rejection, graft-versus-host disease, and lupus and of preventing or mitigating a relapse of a symptom of multiple sclerosis are also disclosed.
