An incretin analogue, a preparation method therefor, and the use thereof. The incretin analogue has a GLP-1R/GIPR/GCGR agonist activity, is a triple agonist, and can be used for lowering blood glucose, reducing fat and reducing weight.

This invention relates to the treatment of Pulmonary Hypertension with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (PH-HFpEF). More specifically, embodiments of the invention provide compositions and methods useful for the treatment of PH-HFpEF employing the use of levosimendan.

A composition in the form of an injectable aqueous solution, the pH of which is from 3.0 to 4.4, including at least a rapid-acting insulin analog and at least one glucagon suppressor with prandial action. The glucagon suppressor with prandial action is selected from the group consisting of an amylin analog or an amylin receptor agonist or a GLP-1 analog or a GLP-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA). The glucagon suppressor with prandial action is an amylin analog or an amylin receptor agonist. The glucagon suppressor peptide with prandial action is pramlintide.

Human relaxin-2 as active ingredient in a pharmaceutical composition for treating a subject suffering from cachexia syndrome or cardiac wasting or suspected of being at risk of suffering from cardiac wasting or cardiac decompensation. The application also described methods of diagnosis of cachexia and cardiac wasting and patients suspected of being at risk of suffering from cardiac decompensation. Further described is a patch pump for sc. or iv infusion of relaxin or human relaxin-2.

The invention belongs to the technical field of polypeptide preparation methods, and in particular relates to a high-purity ACTH (human sequence) or analogue and large-scale preparation method thereof. The main steps include: amino acids are coupled from the C-terminal to the N-terminal by Fmoc solid-phase synthesis method to obtain the crude ACTH (human sequence) or analogue peptidyl-resin with protective groups, wherein the reaction temperature of C-15 peptide synthesis is 40-60° C. After cleavage and precipitation, the crude product of ACTH (human sequence) or analogue is obtained, and then the high-purity product is obtained by liquid chromatography. The chromatographic purity of ACTH (human sequence) or analogue prepared by the invention is more than 99%, the stability is good, and the yield of the target peptide is ≥63%.
