A composition for use in vascular relaxation, wherein the composition includes at least one polyunsaturated fatty acid component and at least one anthocyanin component. The polyunsaturated fatty acid component is an ethyl ester of the omega-3 fatty acids eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) or docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), or an amino acid salt of EPA or DHA. The anthocyanin component is cyanidin-3-galactoside, or delphinidin-3-arabinoside. Further, the omega-3 fatty acid salt has an organic counter ion which is lysine, arginine, ornithine and mixtures of the same. The composition further includes cyanidin-3-galactoside. The composition further includes fruits extracts or cereals extracts. A method for treating a disease with the composition.

The present disclosure addresses the problem of providing at least a composition for suppressing obesity and the problem is solved by a composition for suppressing obesity comprising a prenylflavonoid represented by general formula (1), as an active ingredient, below.

The present invention relates to the treatment of cardiovascular disease, more particularly to the treatment of subjects suffering from or at risk of suffering from atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease that are hypo-responsive to HIS treatment. The present inventors have found that HIS hypo-responders show remarkable improvements in their blood lipid profiles when their statin therapy is combined with treatment with the CETP inhibitor obicetrapib. In a general aspect, the present invention thus provides methods of treating subjects that are hypo-responsive to high intensity statin (HIS) therapy, said method comprising the administration of a composition comprising obicetrapib or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, hydrate or solvate thereof.

[Problem] To provide a novel medicine that is capable of promoting cholesterol metabolism to thereby treat, ameliorate or prevent various symptoms associated with increase in blood cholesterol level. [Solution] The present inventors newly found that arctigenin has an effect of promoting the conversion of cholesterol into bile acid. The present invention provides a bile acid synthesis promoter, a composition for promoting bile acid synthesis and a food composition for promoting bile acid synthesis each comprising arctigenin and/or arctiin as active ingredient(s).

The present invention provides methods and compositions for treating hyperlipidemia and/or hypercholesterolemia comprising administering to the subject an effective amount of an MTP inhibitor to inhibit hyperlipidemia and/or hypercholesterolemia in said subject, wherein said administration comprises an escalating series of doses of the MTP inhibitor. In some embodiments the method comprises administering at least three step-wise, increasing dosages of the MTP inhibitor to the subject. In some embodiments, the method further comprises the administration of one or more other lipid modifying compounds.

To provide a medicament for safely treating a patient in need of treatment with pemafibrate, a salt thereof, or a solvate of any of these (hereinafter also referred to as pemafibrate therapy). A medicament for treating a patient in need of pemafibrate therapy, the medicament comprising the step of avoiding or suspending concomitant use of pemafibrate, a salt thereof, or a solvate of any of these as an active ingredient in order to suppress an increase in plasma concentration of pemafibrate when the treatment is combined with a medicament containing an OATP1B inhibitor, or the step of reducing the dose of pemafibrate, a salt thereof, or a solvate of any of these.

To provide a medicament for safely treating a patient in need of treatment with pemafibrate, a salt thereof, or a solvate of any of these (hereinafter also referred to as pemafibrate therapy). A medicament for treating a patient in need of pemafibrate therapy, the medicament comprising the step of avoiding or suspending concomitant use of pemafibrate, a salt thereof, or a solvate of any of these as an active ingredient in order to suppress an increase in plasma concentration of pemafibrate when the treatment is combined with a medicament containing an OATP1B inhibitor, or the step of reducing the dose of pemafibrate, a salt thereof, or a solvate of any of these.

This disclosure relates to mRNA therapy for the treatment of glycogen storage disease type 1a, (GSD-Ia), and related symptoms such as hypoglycemia. mRNAs for use in the invention, when administered in vivo, encode human glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase or G6PC), and functional fragments and variants thereof. mRNAs of the invention are preferably encapsulated in lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) to effect efficient delivery to cells and/or tissues in subjects, when administered thereto. mRNA therapies of the invention increase and/or restore deficient levels of G6PC expression and/or activity in subjects. mRNA therapies of the invention further increase the glucose production, and reduce the abnormal accumulation of glycogen and/or glucose-6-phosphate associated with GSD-Ia.

The invention relates to a derivative of a GLP-1 analogue of a general Formula I, which derivative comprises a side chain attached to a Lys residue at position 34, 35, 36, 37, or 38 of the GLP-1 analogue, which side chain comprises a Branched linker, a 1.sup.st and a 2.sup.nd Protractor selected from C18 diacid, C20 diacid, and sulfonic acid C16, and at least one Linker element-1 incorporating ethylene glycol units. Linker element-1 may be incorporated in an optional Pre-linker, and/or in a 1.sup.st or 2.sup.nd Post-linker. The invention also relates to novel GLP-1 analogues, novel side chain intermediate products and their manufacture and use to prepare derivatives of biologically active peptides and proteins, as well as pharmaceutical compositions and medical uses of the analogues and derivatives. The derivatives have very long half-lives while maintaining a satisfactory potency, which makes them potentially suitable for once-monthly administration.
