Definitions
- This invention pertains to the administration of chiro-inositol for the treatment of a variety of disease conditions associated with a failure of pyruvate dehydrogenase-mediated metabolic pathways, or disease conditions otherwise linked to a failure of metabolic activation of PDH pathways, glycogen synthase pathways or other blood sugar maintenance pathways including glucose 6-phosphatase and mechanisms of insulin resistance in mammals.
- chiro-inositol dietary supplements are provided for the biosynthesis of a chiro-inositol containing insulin mediator capable of stimulating PDH and glycogen synthase and inhibiting glucose 6-phosphatase and thus overcoming insulin resistance, lowering blood sugar and lowering elevated tactic acid.
- chiro-inositol as a dietary supplement, is demonstrated and claimed in that parent application as an effective treatment for insulin-resistant diabetics and lowering blood sugar.
- Other copending applications are directed to the mediator itself, as well as a method of screening individuals for diabetic conditions, involving assaying body fluids, including urine and serum, for the presence of chiro-inositol.
- insulin resistance which is characterized by the manifestation of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) is frequently associated with hypertension, coronary artery disease (arter-iosclerosis) lactic acidosis and obesity, as well as related disease states.
- NIDDM non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus
- the insulin mediator incorporating chiro-inositol is apparently responsible for the activation of at least one or both of the glycogen synthase metabolic pathway and the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex, specifically, activation of pyruvate dehydrogenase-phosphatase or PDH-P as well as a glycogen synthase phosphatase or GS-P. It also inhibits glucose 6-phosphatase.
- the chiro-inositol containing insulin mediator activates PDH-P, thus initiating the conversion of phosphorylated inactive PDH to dephobphorylated or active PDH, which is responsible, among other things, for oxidative glucose metabolism.
- This mediator also activates GS-P thus initiating the conversion of phosphorylated inactive GS to dephosphorylated active GS responsible among other things for non-oxidative glucose metabolism. It also inhibits glucose 6-phosphatase, the enzyme responsible for increasing blood sugar.
- This failure may be partial or complete.
- a failure of the body's glucose metabolism is directly implicated in a wide variety of the disease states associated, on a statistical basis, with insulin- resistance, including obesity, and a predisposition to coronary artery disease.
- lactic acidosis implicates at least a partial failure of the PDH complex.
- An active PDH complex would lower lactic acid levels. Hypertension and its associated insulin resistance may be directly related to a failure of the PDH complex, although the specific pathway remains unclear.
- a failure of the PDH complex or of the GS complex, or of the glucose 6-phosphatase due to a low level or absence of chiro-inositol mediator (referred to as insulin mediator in the parent application) , caused by a failure of chiro-inositol synthesis, may be treated by administration of a dietary Bupplement of chiro-inositol.
- High levels of chiro-inositol may lead to synthesis of the insulin mediator, allowing a restoration of "normal, insulin direction of PDH complex and GS complex activity and glucose 6-phosphatase activity pathways, through the role of this critical mediator.
- the invention comprises the administration of chiro-inositol to individuals suffering from disease conditions related to a partial or complete failure of the PDH complex, glycogen synthase pathway or related blood sugar level maintenance mechanisms including glucose 6-phosphatase, owing to a low level or absence of chiro-inositol necessary for the synthesis of the insulin mediator responsible for the activation of PDH-P and GS-P and inhibition of glucose 6-phosphatase or additional unknown mechanisms involving chiro-inositol.
- administration of chiro-inositol through a variety of pathways, makes possible the synthesis of this essential mediator, alleviating the disease condition by treating its source, rather than symptomatic treatment as is generally prescribed in the art.
- the net result is a substantial reduction of hallmark elevated blood sugar levels.
- treatment by the administration of chiro-inositol, according to the claimed invention may be accompanied by symptomatic treatment, to the extent such remains appropriate.
- the essential, non-dietary carbohydrate that is the focus of this invention, chiro-inositol, is related to myo-inositol, the structures of the various optically active compounds being set forth herein below.
- D iro-tnosit L-C iro-lnositol Myo-inositol chiro-inositol is available from non-dietary sources, in forms that may not be readily assimilated by the body.
- the methylester of chiro-inositol is found in sugar pine hardwood (PINUS LAMBERTIANA DOUGL) (Anderson, AB 1953 Ind. Ency. Chem. 45, 593-596) .
- Various esterified forms can also be isolated from legumes (Schweizer, T. F., Horman, I., Wuersch, P, 1978, J. Sci. Food A ric. r 29, pages 148-154.
- the assi ilatable sugar itself is not believed to appear, in sufficient quantities, in normal dietary foods, to make up for a lack of the ability to synthesize the sugar.
- This inability may prevent the formation of the chiro-inositol containing insulin mediator responsible for the activation of PDH-P, GS-P or other suitable pathways for lowering blood sugar including glucose 6-phosphatase.
- Administration of chiro-inositol to those identified, through an appropriate screening test, as exhibiting low levels of chiro-inositol, may be employed to achieve the goals of this invention.
- chiro-inositol can be isolated from natural sources through purification and deesterification reactions. It can also be synthesized directly from myo- inositol, commonly available, by direct inversion of the hydroxyl on the three position.
- chiro-inositol is not present in substantial concentrations. Accordingly, the dietary supplement need be present only in vitamin-like concentrations to provide an adequate means of intervening in clinical conditions, as well as preventing the onset of clinical symptoms in those predisposed to their development.
- dosage values will range from 250 to 5000 milligrains, and may be achieved through a variety of pathways.
- An alternative dosage formulation would be administered in the range of 3.5-300 mg/kg, preferably 3.5-70 mg/kg of body weight, more preferably 5-20 mg/kg.
- Adequacy of dosage levels may be determined by assaying patient urine or serum levels for chiro-inositol.
- Urinary levels below about 1.0 ⁇ g/ml, or serum levels below about 0.1 ⁇ g/ml, are indicative of chiro-inositol insufficiency.
- the carbohydrate is directly absorbed, and thus may be most conveniently administered orally. Other forms of administration are also suitable.
- the active agent may be administered alone, or together with other actives.
- the actives may be combined, by oral administration, with additives chosen from the group consisting of sweetening agents, flavoring agents, coloring agents and preserving agents, in order to provide a palatable preparation. Tablets containing the active ingredient in admixture with non-toxic pharmaceutically acceptable excipients which are suitable for manufacture of tablets are acceptable.

Tablets may be uncoated or may be coated by known techniques to delay disintegration and adsorption in the gastrointestinal tract and thereby provide a sustained action over a longer period. For example, a time delay material such as glyceryl monostearate or glyceryl distearate alone or with a wax may be employed.
