Description
ANALOGUES OF FATS FOR THE TREATMENT OF DIABETES
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to novel fatty acid analogs that can be used for the treatment and / or prevention of diabetes. In addition, the invention relates to a nutritional composition comprising such fatty acid analogues.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Diabetes mellitus and its complications are now considered the third leading cause of death in Canada and the United States, behind only cancer and cardiovascular disease. The treatment with modified fatty acids represents a new way to treat these diseases. EP 345,038 and PCT / N095 / 00195 disclose the use of non-β-oxidizable fatty acid analogues.
It has now been found that they have a wider area of applications. In addition, the new fatty acid analogues have been synthesized and characterized now, which impose an effect on diabetes. In feeding experiments with fatty acid, the results show that these compounds decrease adipose tissue mass and body weight and are thus potent drugs for the treatment of obesity and overweight. In addition, it has now been shown that fatty acid analogues are potent antidiabetic compounds, with a profound effect on glucose and insulin levels. In addition, it has been proven that the compounds have a favorable effect on restenosis, and show good antioxidant properties.
DIABETES
Diabetes mellitus and its complications are now considered the third leading cause of death in Canada and the United States, behind only cancer and cardiovascular disease. Although the acute and often lethal symptoms of diabetes can be controlled by insulin therapy, long-term complications reduce life expectancy by as much as a third. Compared with incidence rates in normal non-diabetic people, diabetic patients show rates that are increased 25 times for blindness, 17 times for kidney disease, 5 times for gangrene, and 2 times for heart disease. There are two major forms of diabetes mellitus. One is type I diabetes, which is also known as insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM), and the other is type II diabetes, which is also known as diabetes mellitus II, not insulin-dependent (NIDDM). Most patients with IDDM have a common pathological picture: the almost complete disappearance of pancreatic beta-producing insulin cells which results in hyperglycemia. Considerable evidence has accumulated that shows that most IDDM is the consequence of the progressive destruction of beta cells during an asymptomatic period that frequently extends: in many years. The pre-diabetic period can be recognized by the detection of autoantibodies against islet cells, circulating cells, and autoantibodies against insulin. There is a need for a compound that could be non-toxic and have no side effects, but could prevent IDDM and NIDDM clinics. Type I diabetes: severe diabetes mellitus, usually of abrupt onset before maturity, characterized by low levels of plasma insulin, polydipsia, polyuria, increased appetite, weight loss and ketoacidosis in episodes; also called IDDM. Type II diabetes: a frequently mild form of diabetes mellitus, often of gradual onset, usually in adults, characterized by normal to high plasma insulin levels that are relatively low in relation to plasma glucose levels; also called NIDDM. Type I and II diabetes are in accordance with an etiological classification considered as "primary" diabetes respectively.
Secondary diabetes comprises pancreatic diabetes, ext. pancreatic / endocrine or drug induced. In addition, some types of diabetes are classified as exceptional forms. These include lipoatrophic, miatonic diabetes and a type of diabetes caused by disturbance of insulin receptors. Considering the high occurrence of diabetes in our society and the serious consequences associated with it as discussed above, any therapeutic drug potentially useful for the treatment and prevention of this disease could have a profound beneficial effect on your health. There is a need in the art for a drug that reduces the concentration of glucose in the blood of diabetic subjects without significant adverse side effects. It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a treatment regimen that is useful for lowering blood glucose and for treating a diabetic condition. Yet another objective of the present invention is to provide a treatment regimen that is useful for decreasing the concentration of insulin in the blood, and for increasing the effect of the remaining insulin.
ACTION MECHANISMS
Minor modifications of natural fatty acids, sulfur, selenium or oxygen, replace one or more of the carbon atoms in the main chain of the fatty acid. The compounds defined by formula I have properties that give them a unique combination of biological effects. Tetradecylthioacetic acid (TTA) is more fully studied and has been shown to have several beneficial effects in various animal tests. Studies have shown that TTA has properties very similar to natural fatty acids, the main difference being that TTA is not oxidized by the mitochondrial ß-oxidation system. However, the presence of the compounds of the present invention has not been shown to increase the β-oxidation of the others (unsubstituted fatty acids). The administration of TTA to rats for 12 weeks almost doubled the hepatic and plasma content of the monounsaturated fatty acids (mainly oleic acid), whereas the polyunsaturated fatty acids (mainly linoleic acid and DHA) decreased. In this way the compound of the present invention modifies the composition of the lipids in various tissues. It was also shown that the present compounds modify the fatty acid content, and it was anticipated that the present compounds also modify the distribution of fats. Moderate doses of TTA feed to animals such as rats, mice, rabbits and dogs decreased plasma cholesterol and triacylglycerol levels within a few days of treatment. The same effect has also been shown for TSA, and compounds of the present invention with sulfur substituted at positions 5 or 7, which have been shown to increase β-oxidation and thus it is anticipated that also these fatty acid analogues will decrease the plasma levels of triglycerides and cholesterol. TTA and TSA are much more potent in this respect than polyunsaturated fatty acids such as EPA.
As mentioned above, an important mechanism of action of type 3-thia fatty acids is a significantly increased oxidation of mitochondrial fatty acid, which reduces the availability of fatty acids for esterification. The synthesis of cholesterol and cholesterol is reduced and the VLDL secretion of the liver is reduced (10). This has the effect of reducing the production of LDL. All these effects seem to be at least partially mediated by the receptors]: it is activated by the peroxisome proliferator (PPAP), ubiquitous transcription factors involved in the regulation of lipid metabolism. We have shown that TTA is a potent PPARα ligand, a transcription factor that regulates the catabolism of fatty acids and the cosanoids, and a less potent PPARα ligand, which is involved in the regulation of the differentiation of adipocytes. Obesity is a common feature of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) and a risk factor for its development. NIDDM is frequently linked to hypertension, dyslipidemia, high levels of plasma free fatty acids and an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Patients with NIDDM are characterized by resistance to the action of insulin on glucose uptake in peripheral tissues and poorly regulated insulin secretion. We have shown that TTA decreases hyperinsulinemia and markedly improved the action of insulin on the utilization of glucose. TTA also prevented insulin resistance induced by diet. In contrast to the previously known antidiabetic glitazones, TTA did not increase the increase in body weight. These effects can be at least partially explained by the increased influx of fatty acids and the increased oxidation of the fatty acid in the liver. The data thus suggest a role for TTA in the homeostasis of lipids and glucose in vivo. As clearly shown in the experimental section, the compounds of the present invention inhibit an increase in body weight and adipose tissue mass of animals given either a high fat or high sucrose content diet. This makes the compounds of the present invention very suitable as pharmaceutical and / or nutritional agents for the treatment of obesity, for example compounds that can be used as a slimming agent to provide a reduction in body weight or weight of adipose tissue In addition, the compounds of the present invention can be used as an antidiabetic drug by reducing the concentration of glucose in the blood. It has also been shown that the compounds of the present invention reduce the plasma concentration of insulin in hyperinsulinemic animals. For animals who have reduced sensitivity to insulin, the compounds of the present invention have been shown to reinforce the effect of endogenous insulin. The term "metabolic syndrome" is used to describe a multimetabolic syndrome which is inter alia characterized by hyperinsulinemia, insulin resistance, obesity, glucose intolerance, type 2 diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia or hypertension. As indicated above, the compounds of the present invention have been shown to provide a positive effect on all the aforementioned conditions, for example in regulating the homeostasis of glucose and lipids, and thus it is anticipated that the compounds of the present invention will be suitable agents for the regulation of the metabolic disease defined above (sometimes called syndrome X).

Examples of parenteral administration include subcutaneous, intramuscular, intravenous, intial and intraperitoneal administration. As a general proposition, the total pharmaceutically effective amount of each of the compounds administered parenterally per dose will preferably be in the range of about 5 mg / kc / day to 1000 mg / kg / day of the patient's body weight, although, as previously noted, this will be subject to great care of therapeutic discretion. For TTA it is expected that a dose of 100-500 mg / kg / day is preferable, and for TSA the dose could probably be in the range of 10 to 100 mg / kg / day. If administered continuously, the compounds of the present invention are each typically administered by 1 to 4 injections per day or by continuous subcutaneous infusions, for example, using a mini-pump. An intravenous bag solution can also be used. The key factor in the selection of an appropriate dose is the result obtained, as measured by decreases in total body weight or the ratio of fat to lean mass, or by other criteria for measurement, control or prevention of Obesity, or prevention of conditions related to obesity, as they are considered appropriate by the practitioner. For parenteral administration, in one embodiment, the compounds of the present invention are generally formulated by mixing each to the desired degree of purity, in a unit dose injectable form (solution, suspension, or emulsion) with a pharmaceutically carrier. acceptable, for example, one that is non-toxic to patients at the doses in concentrations employed and that is compatible with other ingredients of the formulation. In general, the formulations are prepared by contacting the compounds of the present invention each uniformly and intimately with liquid carriers or finely divided solid carriers or both. Later, if necessary, the product is shaped into the desired solution. Preferably, the carrier is a parenteral carrier, more preferably a solution that is isctonic with the patient's blood. Examples of such carrier vehicles include water, saline, Ringer's solution, and dextrose solution. Non-aqueous vehicles such as fixed oils and ethyl oleate are also useful herein, as well as the 1 iposomes. The carrier may suitably contain minor amounts of additives such as substances that improve isotonicity and chemical stability. Such materials are non-toxic to patients at the doses and concentrations employed, and include buffers such as phosphate, citrate, succinate, acetic acid, and other organic acids or their salts; antioxidants such as ascorbic acid; immunoglobulins; hydrophilic polymers such as polyvinylpyrrolidone; amino acids such as glycine, glutamic acid, aspartic acid, or arginine; monosaccharides, disaccharides, and other carbohydrates including cellulose and its derivatives, glucose, mannose, or dextrins; chelating agents such as EDTA; sugar alcohols such as mannitol or sorbitol; counterions such as sodium; and / or nonionic surfactants such as poly isorbate, poloxamers, or PEG. For oral pharmacological compositions, carrier materials such as for example water, gelatin, gums, lactose, starches, magnesium stearate, talc, oils, polyalkylene glycol, petroleum jelly and the like can be used. Such a pharmaceutical preparation may be in unit dosage form and may further contain other therapeutically valuable substances or conventional pharmaceutical adjuvants such as preservatives, stabilizing agents, emulsifiers, buffers and the like. The pharmaceutical preparations can be in conventional liquid forms such as tablets, capsules, dragees, ampoules and the like, in conventional dosage forms such as dry ampules, and as suppositories, and the like. The treatment with the present compounds may occur without, or may be imposed with, a restriction on the diet such as a limit on the daily food or on the ingestion of calories, as desired by the individual patient. In addition, the compounds of the present invention are suitably administered in combination with other treatments to combat or prevent obesity. The invention will be more fully understood by reference to the following examples. These should not, however, be considered as limiting the scope of the invention.

Glucose tolerance tests, intravenous
Male Zueker (fa / fa) rats (5 weeks old) were anesthetized after a 5 hour fast, by peritoneal injection of pentobarbi such sodium (50 mg / kg). The rats were injected. with glucose (0.55% g / kg) in the saphenous vein and blood samples were collected from the tail vein in hepar tubes initiated at the times of 0, 5, 10, 15, 20 and 30 minutes after loading of glucose. The samples were kept on ice, centrifuged and the plasma was stored at -20 ° C until analysis.
Euglycemic hyper insulic clamp
After 21 days in their respective diets (see above), the rats were anesthetized by injection of xylazine hydrochloride (Rometar SPOFA, Prague, Czech Republic, 10 mg / ml) and ketamine hydrochloride (Narkamon SPOFA, Prague, Czech Republic; 75 mg / ml), and adjusted with cannulas for the chronic carotid artery and the jugular vein as described by Koopmans et al. (Koopmans SJ, .and collaborators Biochim Biophys Acta, 1115, 2130-2138 1992). The cannulated rats were allowed to recover two days after the surgery before the clamping studies that were carried out according to Kraegen and collaboracores (Kraegen E. W. et al., Am J Physiol, 248, E353-E362 1983). Thus, on the third day after surgery, the unrestricted conscious rats were administered with a continuous infusion of porcine insulin (ActrapLd, Novo Nordisk, Denmark) at a dose of 6.4 mIJ per kg per minute, to reach insulin levels Plasma in the upper physiological range. The arterial blood glucose concentration was confirmed at the basal fasting level, by variable infusion of a glucose solution at 30% w / v (Leciva, Prague, Czech Republic). Blood samples for the determination of plasma glucose and insulin concentrations were obtained every 15 minutes after the start of glucose infusion. After 90 minutes, the rats were disconnected from the infusions and immediately decapitated, the blood was collected for plasma separation, adipose tissue pads from the liver and the epididymis were dissected and weighed.
Measurement of plasma parameters
Glucose concentrations (GLU, Boehringer Manheim, Germany), free fatty acids (NEFA, C ACS-ACOD equipment, Wako Chemicals, Dalton, USA) and b-hydroxybutyrate (equipment 310-A, Sigma Diagnostics Inc., St Louis, USA) were measured using enzymatic methods. Insulin concentrations were determined with radioimmunoassay using (CIS bio International, Gif sur Yvette, France) the use of rat insulin as standard in Zucker rats. In Wistar Charles River rats, plasma glucose concentrations were measured with the help of the Beckman glucose analyzer (Fullerton, CA, United States). Plasma insulin levels were measured using a RIA team from Lineo Research Inc. (St. Charles, MO, United States). The phospholipids were measured by the enzymatic method of bioMérieux, Marcy-1 'Et oi le, France, triacylglycerol by Technicon Method No. SA4-0324L90, United States and cholesterol by Technicon method No. SA4-0305L90 , U.S.
Preparation of nuclear and mitochondrial post-nuclear fractions and measurement of magnetic activity
Livers freshly isolated from old individual Zucker rats were homogenized with ice-cooled sucrose buffer (0.25 M sucrose, 10 mM ipH 7.4 HEPES) and 2 mM EDTA). The postnuclear and mitochondrial fractions were prepared using preparative differential centrifugation according to DeDuve, C., and collaborators Biochem. J., 60, 604-617 1955). The modifications, purity and performance were as described at the beginning (Garras, A., and collaborators Biochim, Biophys, Acta, 1255, 154-160 1995). Acid-soluble products were measured in the post-nuclear and mitochondrial enriched fractions, using [l-14C] -palmitoyl-CoA and [1 -14C] -palmi t or i 1-L-carni t ina
(Radiochemica 1 Center, Amersham, England) as substrates as described at the beginning
(Willumsen, N., et al., J. Lipid Res., 34, 13-22 1993). The carnitine-palmit oiltrans-I and -II activities were measured in the postnuclear and mitochondrial fraction essentially as described by Bremer (Bremer, J., Biochim, Biophys, Acta, 665, 628-631, 1981), and 3-hydroxy-3-met i lglut ar i 1-CoA-s int a sa was measured according to Clinkenbeard and co-workers (Clinkenbeard, KD et al., J. Biol. Chem, 250, 3108-3116 1975) in the mitochondrial fractions.
RNA analysis
RNA extraction (Chomc zyns ki, P., et al., Anal. Biochem., 162, 156-159 1987), analysis of Northern blotting and transfer or spotting of RNA on nylon filters, and hybridization to the immobilized RNA, they were performed as described at the beginning (Vaagenes, H., et al Biochem, Pharmacol., 56, 1571-1582 1998). The following cDNA fragments were used as probes: CPT-I (Esser, V. et al., J. Biol. Chem., 268-5817-5822 1993), CPT-II (Woeltje, KF et al., J. Biol. Chem., 265, 10720-10725 1990), 3-h? Drox? -3-metigltaryl-CoA-smtase (Ayte, J., et al., Proc. Nati, Acad. Sci. United States, 87, 3874- 3878 L990), and the hormone-sensitive lipase (Holm, c., Et al., Biochim, Biophys. Acta, 1006, 193-197 1989). Relative levels of RNA expression were estimated as the amounts of radioactive probe hybridized to the respective 28S rRNA levels.

TTA toxicity study
A 28-day toxicity study in dogs according to the GLP guidelines (good laboratory practices) has been carried out by Corning Hazleton (Europe), England. Oral administration of TTA at dose levels up to 500 mg / kg / day was generally well tolerated. Some parameters related to lipids were decreased in animals given high doses. This is consistent with the pharmacological activity of TTA.
The dose level of 500 mg / kg / day also caused the loss of body weight. There was no evidence of toxicity at dose levels of 50 or 500 mg / day / kg. The tests for the mutagenic activity have been carried out with Covance Laboratories Limited, England. It was concluded that TTA and TSA did not induce mutations in the strains of Salmonel typhimurium and Escherichia coli. In addition, TTA was not mutagenic as was tested in mouse lymphoma cells and L5178Y. The concentration of the tested compounds in S. typhymur ium and E. coli in 3-1000 mg / plate (TTA), 2-5000 mg / plate (TSA). In mouse lymphoma cells L5178Y, the concentration was 2.5-50 mg / ml. TSA and TTA were found to be non-mutagenic in these tests. TSA and TTA have been tested for chromosomal aberrations in cultured Chinese hamster ovary cells and were not induced to aberrations by the doses tested (12-140 mg / ml). The compounds of the present invention are therefore potentially useful as pharmaceutical compounds in this regard.

TTA induces a decrease effect in lipids in obese animals
Obese male Zucker fa / fa rats, weighing 100 g at the beginning of the experiment, were housed in pairs in metal wire cages in a room kept at 12-hour light-dark cycles and a constant temperature of 20 ± 3 ° C. The animals were acclimated for at least one week under these conditions before the start of the experiment. The TTA (acid t et radeci 1 t ioacético) prepared according to the procedure described previously, and palmitic acid (control) were suspended in carboxymethylcellulose at 0.5% (w / v) (CMC). Six animals were used in both groups. TTA (tet radeci lt ioacetic acid) and palmitic acid were administered at a dose of 300 mg / day / kg body weight., by gastric intubation (fattening) once a day for 10 days. The rats were fasted for 2 hours before the termination of the experiment. Blood and organs were collected. The concentrations of lipid in the plasma were determined using a self-measuring device, as described in the methods section. The results obtained are reported in Table 1.

TTA and TSA induce a lipid lowering effect in normal animals (Wistar rats)
Male Wistar rats, weighing 180-200 g at the beginning of the experiment, were housed individually in metal wire cages in a room maintained at 12-hour light-dark cycles and at a constant temperature of 20 ± 3 ° C. The animals were acclimated for a week under these conditions before the start of the experiments. TTA, TSA and eicosapent aenoic acid (EPA) were suspended in 0.5% (w / v) carboxymethylcellulose (CMC). Six animals were used for each treatment, and a 0.5% solution of CMC was administered to rats as control. After administration of the test compound, the rats were fasted for 12 hours and anesthetized with haloet ano. The EPA and the fatty acid derivatives were administered by gastric intubation (priming) once a day for 7 days. Blood samples were collected by cardiac puncture, and lipid concentrations in the plasma were determined as described in the methods section. The results are given in table 2.
Table 2 Effect of TTA, TSA and EPA on plasma lipid levels in rats
Table 2 shows that TTA exhibits a good blood lipid lowering effect in rats. It would appear that a 100-fold higher dose of EPA is necessary to obtain the same decrease in plasma lipid concentration as obtained for TSA. In addition, the substituted fatty acid compounds of the present invention are much more effective than pure EPA and fish oil in lowering plasma lipids. Therefore, these are potentially useful as medical compounds.
E j us 5. Influence of TTA on high-fat diets, fed Wistar rats
Charles River
Wistar Charles River male rats (280-360 g) were fed 3 different diets (see methods) for 3 weeks at d 1 ibi t um. After this, they were sacrificed by decapitation, the adipose tissue pads of the liver and the epididymis were dissected and weighed. By feeding the Wistar rats with the high-fat diet, the weight of the epididymal fat pad and the re-treper implant were increased. Treatment with TTA prevented the increase in tissue in adipose tissue mass and this effect was independent of food consumption, which was identical (high fat content: 15.1 ± 1.1 vs. high fat content + TTA: 14.8 ± 1.3 g / rat / day.

2 groups of 6 male Wistar rats were randomly selected, and studied for weight development over a period of 12 weeks. The body weight of each Wistar rat was measured at the beginning of the experiment. All the animals in both groups individually received the same amount of food (nutrition) during the experimental period of 12 weeks. All the animals in one of the groups were orally administered with
the medicine that comprises TTA. The other group was the control group (CMC). After the 12-week period, the body weight of the rats was measured again. The results are given in Table 4 and show that oral administration of TTA leads to significant loss in weight.

E xemployment 11. Treatment with TTA prevents the induction of hyperinsulinemia by HF diet in normal rats
Rats weighing 280-360 g were divided into 3 groups (n = 6) and fed three different diets: standard feed for rats, high fat diet (HF) and HF supplemented with TTA. After 21 days in their respective diets, blood was collected after an all-night fast, from the vein of the tail. The data is shown as the mean ± SEM. The results were analyzed by ANOVA (analysis of variance) and the different letters denote the statistical significance (p <0.05). Figure 3 shows that TTA treatment prevents hyperinsulinemia induced by the high-fat diet in Wistar Charles River rats.
Example 12
Treatment with TTA prevents insulin resistance induced by high-fat diet (HF) in normal rats
Rats weighing 330 ± 20 g were divided into 3 groups (n = 9) and fed three different diets: standard feed for rats, high fat diet (HF) and HF supplemented with TTA. After 21 days of their respective diets, a 90 minute euglycemic hypermic retention was performed in unrestricted conscious animals as described in Materials and Methods. The rate of glucose infusion (GIR) was determined from the period of the clamp or clamp where the blood glucose remained stabilized, for example between 45-90 minutes after the start of fixation or clamping. The data are presented as the mean ± SEM. An euglycemic hyperinsulinic clamp or hyperinsulin protocol was established to test whether the highest TTA in the diet could improve the deterioration of insulin action, induced by feeding with high fat content, in rats. The 90-minute hyperinsemic ulcerative euglycemic clamp resulted in maximum plasma glucose and plasma insulin levels that were not different in the three groups studied. There was a significant reduction in the rate of exogenous glucose infusion (GIR) required to maintain euglycemia in the HF group (Figure 4) compared to Wistar rats fed the standard diet. Interestingly, TTA overfeeding of the HF diet prevented the development of insulin resistance in these rats as evidenced by completely normal GIR. This indicates a beneficial effect of TTA on the action of insulin in vivo. Figure 4 shows that treatment with TTA prevents insulin resistance induced by the high-fat diet in Wistar Charles River rats.

-week-old Zucker rats (fa / fa
As shown in Figure 5, treatment with TTA reduced the blood insulin concentration by almost 40%, while the blood glucose concentration was reduced by approximately 15%. The rats were administered with TTA at a dose of 300 mg / kg / day suspended in 0.5% CMC (n = 6) by oral priming. After 11 days of treatment, the rats were sacrificed by cervical dislocation. The blood was collected and the insulin and glucose levels measured as indicated in the methods section. The data are the means ± S.D. According to Zucker, L.M. and collaborators
(Sparks, J. D. et al., Metabolism, 47, 1315-1324 1998), these young animals have not developed hyperglycemia.
Obese rats Zucker (fa / fa) 4 months old
Figure 6 shows the effect on TTA on insulin and blood glucose levels in Zucker (fa / fa) rats at 4 months of age, for example rats that have developed hyperglycemia (Sparks, JD et al., Metabolism, 47, 1315- 1324 1998). The rats were administered with a standard diet, either with (n = 5) or without (n = 6) 0.15% TTA. After 21 di. As of treatment, blood was collected and insulin and glucose levels were measured. The data are the means ± S.D.
E xemployment 15. Treatment with TTA decreases the response of plasma insulin to glucose
To investigate whether treatment with TTA resulted in or not an improvement in the action of insulin on glucose utilization, an intravenous glucose tolerance test (IVGTT) was performed. In Zucker rats at 5 weeks of age (fa / fa), treatment with TTA resulted in a significantly lower plasma insulin response towards glucose (Figure 7A). The IVGTT glucose curves were normal and comparable between the control and TTA treated rats (Figure 7B).
E xemplo 16 The effect of TTA on mitochondrial ß-oxidation
Obese Zucker (fa / fa) rats were administered with a standard feed either with (n = 6) or without (n = 5) 0.15% TTA. After 21 days of treatment, the rats were sacrificed by cervical dislocation and the livers were removed. The mitochondrial fractions were isolated from the individual livers. Oxidation rates of fatty acids were measured using [1 -14 C] -palmi t oi 1 -CoA or [1-14C] -pa lmi t oi 1 -L-carni t ina as substrate (A) CPT-I ( B) and CPT-II (C) were measured in the mitochondrial fractions. RNA purification and hybridization experiments were also performed. The relative levels of mRNA were determined by densitometry scanning of the autoradiograms and the different mRNA levels were normalized to the 28S rRNA and the means for the controls were adjusted up to 1. The formation of the acid-soluble products in the Obese control animals were 1.3 ± 0.7 and 5.3 ± 2.2 nmol / g liver / minute using pa lmi t oi 1 -CoA and palmi toi 1 -L-carnitine as substrates, respectively. The CPT-I activity in control rats was 22.14.9 nmol / g liver / minute, and the CPT-II activity in the control rats was 270 + 115 nmol / g liver / minute. The values are expressed as the mean i S.D. The administration of TTA increased the plasma concentrations of ketone bodies, resulting in a marked decrease in the body ratio FFA / ketone (Table 7). These data indicate that treatment with TTA of obese 4-month-old Zucker (fa / fa) rats increased hepatic mitochondrial ß-oxidation and ketogenesis. Of course, treatment with TTA of obese Zucker (fa / fa) rats increased hepatic fatty acid oxidation more than 7 times as measured with palmi toi 1-CoA and palmi toyl-L-carnitine as substrates (Figure 8A). This induction of β-oxidation was accompanied by an increase in the activity of mRNA levels of CPT-I (Figure 8B) and CPT-II (Figure 8C). In addition, the activities of speed-limiting enzymes in ketogenesis were increased (Table
7).

E xemplo 17 The effect of TTA on hepatic levels of triacylglycerol
The oxidation of mitochondrial fatty acids significantly increased, caused by TTA will reduce the availability of fatty acids for esterification. The synthesis of glycerol and cholesterol is thus reduced, and the secretion of VLDL from the liver is diminished. This is reflected at a decreased level of blood glucose in the liver, reduced plasma glucose, and reduced adipose tissue mass. The basal and total lipolysis are not changed (data not shown) and the ratio between plasma free fatty acids and ketone bodies is diminished (data not shown). This indicates an increased flow of fatty acids from the peripheral tissues to the liver for oxidation.
Even a hepatic level of triacylglycerol can be alleviated by TTA. By feeding the rats with an inhibitor of fatty acid oxidation, the level of hepatic thyroid is increased resulting in fatty liver. Tet radeci 1 - 4-t ia-propiónico acid (TTP) is a fatty acid analogue with a sulfur atom in position 4. This analogue inhibits the ß-oxidation of fatty acids due to the formation of a mitochondrial inhibitor . Feeding the rats with this analogue results in the formation of fat. However, if rats are fed a combination of TTA and TTP, fatty liver formation is avoided (Table 8). This provides evidence that TTA can be used for the treatment of conditions with an increased hepatic level of metabolism. Male Wistar rats had free access to water and food for rat maintenance. These were fed with palmitic acid or fatty acid analogues suspended at 0.5% CMC for 6 days. In some experiments TTA or TTP were fed for 3 days before feeding both for 6 days. At the end of the experiment, the rats were fasted overnight, sacrificed, the liver was removed and homogenized. Triacylglycerol was measured in the homogenate.

Use 1
The fatty acid analogs have been synthesized where the sulfur atom is moved to the posterior positions of the carboxyl group of the fatty acid. When the sulfur atom is placed in the positions on the carbon chain with odd numbers (5, 7, 9, etc.), these analogs will be partially β-oxidized. The β-oxidation removes the two carbon atoms at a time from the carboxy terminus of the fatty acid, and such analogs can thus be β-oxidized until the sulfur atom is in the 3-position. In this way, it is conceivable that such analogs may have biological effects similar to TTA. Experiments have shown that the fatty acid analogues related to having a sulfur atom in an odd numbered position on the carbon chain will all increase the mitochondrial ß-oxidation (Table 9). The mitochondrial ß-oxidation is measured as in example 16 with the use of [1-14C] -pa lmit oi 1 -L-carnitine as substrates.
