摘要:
The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition for the prevention and treatment of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), including a conjugate prepared by covalently linking an insulinotropic peptide, a non-peptidyl polymer and an immunoglobulin Fc region. The composition of the present invention maintains the in-vivo activity of the peptide at a relatively high level, and remarkably increases the blood half-life, thereby preventing triglyceride accumulation which is a typical feature of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Ultimately, it can be desirably employed for the prevention and treatment of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.

The present invention relates to a conjugate comprising oxyntomodulin, an immunoglobulin Fc region, and non-peptidyl polymer wherein the conjugate being obtainable by covalently linking oxyntomodulin to immunoglobulin Fc region via non-peptidyl polymer, and a pharmaceutical composition for the prevention or treatment of obesity comprising the conjugates. The conjugate comprising oxyntomodulin and the immunoglobulin Fc of the present invention reduces food intake, suppresses gastric emptying, and facilitates lipolysis without side-effects, unlike native oxyntomodulin, and also shows excellent receptor-activating effects and long-term sustainability, compared to native oxyntomodulin. Thus, it can be widely used in the treatment of obesity with safety and efficacy.

摘要:
The present invention relates to immunoglobulin Fc variants having an increased binding affinity for FcRn, which is characterized by including one or more amino acid modifications selected from the group consisting of 307S, 308F, 380S, 380A, 428L, 429K, 430S, 433K and 434S (this numbering is according to the EU index) in the constant region of a native immunoglobulin Fc fragment. Owing to the high binding affinity for FcRn, the immunoglobulin Fc variants according to the present invention show more prolonged in vivo half-life, and thus can be used for the preparation of a long-acting formulation of protein drugs.
