Definitions

  • Diabetics as group, are far more often afflicted with blindness, heart disease, stroke, kidney diseas hearing loss, gangrene and impotence.
  • One third of all visits to physicians are occasione by this disease and its complications are a leading cause of death in this country.
  • Diabetes adversely affects the way the body uses sugars and starches which during digestion, are converted into glucose.
  • Insulin a hormone produced by the pancreas makes the glucose available to the body's cells for energy.
  • adipose (fat) an connective tissues, insulin facilitates the entry of glucose into the cells by an action on th cell membranes.
  • the injected glucose is normally metabolized in the liver to CO 2 and H 2 (50%); to glycogen (5 %), and to fate (30-40%), which is stored in fat depots.
  • Fatty acid are circulated, returned to the liver and metabolized to ketone bodies for utilization by th tissues.
  • the fatty acids are also metabolized by other organs, fat formation being a majo pathway for carbohydrate utilization.
  • the net effect of insulin is to promote the storage an use of carbohydrates, protein and fat. Insulin deficiency is a common and serious pathologi condition in man. In Type I diabetes the pancreas produces little or no insulin, and insuli must be injected daily for the survival of the diabetic. In Type II diabetes the pancrea produces insulin, but the amount of insulin is insufficient, or less than fully effective due t cellular resistance, or both. In either form there are widespread abnormalities, but th fundamental defects to which the abnormalities can be traced are (1) a reduced entry o glucose into various "peripheral" tissues and (2) an increased liberation of glucose into th circulation from the liver (increased hepatic glucogenesis).
  • Insulin resistance ca be defined as a state in which a normal amount of insulin produces a subnormal biologi response. In insulin-treated patients with diabetes, insulin resistance is considered to b present whenever the therapeutic dose of insulin exceeds the secretory rate of insulin in normal persons. Insulin resistance is also found in the setting defined by higher-than-normal levels of insulin — i.e., hyperinsulinemia — when there is present normal or elevated levels of blood glucose. Despite decades of research on these serious health problems, the etiology of obesity and insulin resistance is unknown.
  • Daily rhythms have been reported for many hormones inclusive of the adrenal steroids, e.g., the glucocorticosteroids, notably cortisol, and prolactin, a hormone secreted by the pituitary.
  • the glucocorticosteroids notably cortisol
  • prolactin a hormone secreted by the pituitary.
  • the early article, discussing the state- of-the-art at that time it is reported that "Although correlations have been made between hormone rhythms and other rhythms, there is little direct evidence that the time of the daily presence or peak level of hormones has important physiological relevance.” See Temporal Synergism of Prolactin and Adrenal Steroids by Albert H. Meier, General and Comparative
  • the circadian variations of cortisol were similar irrespective of sex, seasonal condition and daylight.
  • the circadian variation of insulin in contrast, differed markedly. Neither the daily feeding pattern or glucose concentration varied appreciably with seasonal condition, or daylight. The time of day, or the season, it is reported do not appear to affect the concentrations in glucose or cortisol levels. It is postulated that the daily rhythms of cortisol and insulin are regulated by different neural pacemaker systems, and that changes in the phase relations of circadian systems account in part for seasonal changes in body fat stores.
  • Insulin is a hormone with a multitude of biological activities, many of whic are tissue specific. For example, insulin can augment milk production in the mammar gland, stimulate fat synthesis in the liver, promote the transport of glucose into muscle tissue stimulate growth of connective tissues, and the like. The effects of the insulin molecule i one tissue are not necessarily dependent upon its effect in other tissues. That is, these insuli activities can be and are molecularly separate from each other. In contradistinction from th previous art of Meier and Cincotta which teaches that dopamine agonists (e.g.
  • bromocriptin inhibit liver cell lipogenic ( or fat synthesizing) responsiveness to insulin
  • the new technolog described and demonstrated herein teaches that appropriately timed daily administration o a dopamine agonist (e.g., bromocriptine) has another new and distinctly unique beneficial medicinal capability which is to stimulate whole body (primarily muscle) tissue hypoglycemic (or glucose disposal) responsiveness to insulin.
  • dopamine agonists e.g., bromocriptine
  • This new discovery of this new medical utility of dopamine agonists represents an entirely opposite effect, upon an entirely different biological activity of the insulin molecule, and upon an entirely different tissue of the body from the previous dopamine agonist work of Meier and Cincotta.
  • a more specific object is to provide a process for resetting the circadian neural centers of animals, including humans, to decrease obesity and maintain the more normal body fat stores of a lean animal, or lean human, on a long term basis.
  • a further, and equally specific object is to provide a process for resetting on a long term basis the circadian neural centers, particularly in humans, to increase and

  • a dopamine agonist, or prolactin inhibiting compound is administered to the vertebrate, animal or human, preferably orally, sublingually or by subcutaneous or intramuscular injection into the bloodstream.
  • a prolactin-inhibiting compound preferably an ergot-related prolactin-inhibiting compound, is administered to a subject exhibiting any one or more of the symptoms desirable of change, e.g., obesity, insulin resistance, hyperinsulinemia or hyperglycemia.

  • Example 5 Fifteen persons, diagnosed with noninsulin dependent (Type D) diabetes, were treated with bromocriptine to determine the effects of the treatments on body fat and hyperglycemia. Seven diabetics (2 males and 5 females) were being treated orally with stimulants for endogenous insulin secretion (hypoglycemic drugs: diabenase and micronase) and seven diabetics (2 males and 5 females) were receiving daily injections (morning and evening administrations) of insulin. Only those who were found to be very hyperglycemic (i.e., fasting plasma glucose > 160 mg/dl) in the morning after a night of fasting and before insulin injection or taking other medications were accepted for the study. One obese man with severe hyperglycemia who refused conventional treatment for diabetes was permitted to participate in this bromocriptine study and is included with the group receiving hypoglycemic drugs.

  • Bromocriptine was taken orally daily at times calculated to reset circadian hormone rhythms to phase relationships that cause loss of body fat. Generally, bromocriptine was administered in the morning within 5 hours after awakening. Nausea was usually avoided by starting with the lower dosage (1.25 mg) for 2-3 days and then raising the dosage levels to 2.5 mg daily. Only mild nausea was observed by less that 10% of the participants
  • SUBSTITUTE SHEET was transient, lasting only for the first few days. The participants were carefully instructed not to alter their daily activity or eating habits during the course of treatment. Patient compliance was excellent as indicated by weekly interviews of subjects who monitored their food intake, and the transient anorexic effects sometimes produced by higher doses of bromocriptine did not occur in this study.
  • Skinfold thickness was measured on the left side of the body by a trained anthropometrist in four regions: biceps, triceps, subscapular, and suprailiac, following the recommendations of the International Biological Program. Because of its frequent use, percent body fat was estimated from the common logarithm of the sum of the four skinfolds, using the equations of Durnin and Rahman and of Siri. A recent study indicates very similar estimations of body fat by hydrodensitometry and skinfold thickness measurement methods. Skinfold measurements were taken initially and at weekly intervals by the same individual. Blood pressure was also determined at these times. Morning fasting plasma glucose in the diabetic group was determined initially and after 4-8 weeks. Reference is made to the Table below.
  • SUBSTITUTE SHEET 1 Every individual in the groups taking hypoglycemic drugs (8 subjects) or insulin (7 subjects) lost plasma glucose, skinfold thickness and total body fat. The losses are signigicant (p ⁇ 0.05).
  • hypoglycemic medication was completely discontinued during bromocriptine treatment in three individuals and blood glucose levels remained near normal ( ⁇ 1 20 mg/dl) for at least two months after bromocriptine treatment was terminated.
  • Doses of hypoglycemic drugs and insulin were reduced in three other subjects during bromocriptine treatment.
  • Body fat stores were substantially reduced by timed bromocriptine treatment in NIDDM subjects taking hyperglycemic drugs as evidenced by a mean reduction of 21 % in the skinfold measurements at the four regions examined. This reduction amounts to a mean loss of 10 pounds for each individual and a decline in total body fat of 10.7% within 4 to 8 weeks.
  • the reductions in skinfold (16%), body fat (3.1 pounds) and % body fat (5.1) were less in those subjects taking insulin.
  • Body weights were perhaps shghtly reduced (2.4 pounds per subject, not statistically significant) in subjects taking hypoglycemic drugs and not at all reduced in those taking insulin.
  • bromocriptine treatment can dramatically reduce body fat stores in human subjects.
  • Bromocriptine treatment also substantially reduced hyperglycemia within two months in noninsulin dependent (Type H) diabetics. These results were achieved without changing individual existing diets and exercise regimens.
  • the reduction of body fat produced by bromocriptine treatment differs in a significant way from reduction of fat achieved by caloric restriction. With very low calorie diets only about 45 % of the weight loss is lipid: the remainder includes protein, carbohydrate and water.
  • the data show that metabolic states are regulated at least in part by an interaction of circadian neuroendocrine rhythms. This hypothesis proposes that the daily rhythms of cortisol and prolactin are individual expressions of two separate circadian systems and that the daily injections of these hormones can reset the phase relations of these two systems.
  • the 0-hour relation resets the circadian oscillations into a pattern that maintains the lean, insulin sensitive state and the 12- hour relation permits retention of a pattern that maintains the obese, insulin resistant state.
  • Another important addition of the present study is that the effects of timed injections of a dopamine agonist, or prolactin inhibiting compound, are long lasting.
  • the phase relation of the two circadian oscillations tends to maintain its altered pattern. Changes in the phase relations of two circadian neuroendocrine oscillations are evidenced by changes in the phase relations of their circadian expressions. This expectation is fulfilled respecting plasma glucocorticosteroid and prolactin rhythms. In several species examined, the phase relations of the two hormone rhythms differ in lean and fat animals.
  • phase relation between the circadian rhythm of plasma insulin concentration and the rhythm of lipogenic responsiveness to insulin is shown to differ in lean
  • phase relations of both prolactin and insulin rhythms as well as th rhythms of tissue responses to the hormones are important elements in the regulation o lipogenesis. All of these rhythms, then, would be phase adjusted to regulate lipogenesis. Phase adjustment of these and perhaps other rhythms may also account for insulin resistance. It is apparent that various modifications and changes can be made without departing the spirit and scope of this invention.
