The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition for treatment and/or prevention for urinary diseases comprising a lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) receptor regulator. As LPA receptor regulators act on urethra and prostate, compounds acting on this receptor are useful in treating urinary diseases (urinary incontinence, dysuria, etc.). For example, an LPA receptor agonist useful for treatment of urinary incontinence, while an LPA receptor antagonist is useful for treatment of dysuria, ischuria, pollakiuria, nocturia, urodynia and benign prostatic hyperplasia.

Pharmaceutical composition for treatment for urinary diseases comprising LPA receptor regulator

A peroxisome proliferator activated receptor regulator containing a carboxylic acid derivative of formula (I) (wherein all symbols are as defined in the specification), a non-toxic acid thereof or a hydrate thereof as active ingredient. Because of having an effect of regulating PPAR, a compound of formula (I) is useful as a hypoglycemic agent, a hypolipidemic agent, a preventive and/or a remedy for diseases associating metabolic disorders (diabetes, obesity, syndrome X, hypercholesterolemia, hyperlipoproteinemia, etc.), hyperlipemia, atherosclerosis, hypertension, circulatory diseases, overeating, coronary heart diseases, etc., an HDL cholesterol-elevating agent, an LDL cholesterol and/or VLDL cholesterol-lowering agent and a drug for relief from, risk factors of diabetes or syndrome X.

Carboxylic acid derivative and a pharmaceutical composition containing the derivative as active ingredient

The compound 3-(5-(2-(2-(4-methylphenyl)-5-methyloxazol-4-yl)ethoxy)-3,4-dihydronaphthalene-1-yl)propanoic acid or a nontoxic salt thereof. Because this compound has activity of regulating peroxisome proliferators activated receptor regulator, it is useful as a hyperglycemic agent, a hypolipidemic agent, a preventative and/or treatment agent for diseases associated with metabolic disorders etc.

Dihydronaphthalene derivative compounds and agent comprising the derivative as active ingredient

A peroxisome proliferator activated receptor regulator containing a carboxylic acid derivative of formula (I) (wherein all symbols are as defined in the specification), a non-toxic acid thereof or a hydrate thereof as active ingredient. Because of having an effect of regulating PPAR, a compound of formula (I) is useful as a hypoglycemic agent, a hypolipidemic agent, a preventive and/or a remedy for diseases associating metabolic disorders (diabetes, obesity, syndrome X, hypercholesterolemia, hyperlipoproteinemia, etc.), hyperlipemia, atherosclerosis, hypertension, circulatory diseases, overeating, coronary heart diseases, etc., an HDL cholesterol-elevating agent, an LDL cholesterol and/or VLDL cholesterol-lowering agent and a drug for relief from risk factors of diseases or syndrome X.

Polypeptide, cDNA encoding the same, and use of them

A peroxisome proliferator activated receptor regulator containing a carboxylic acid derivative of formula (I)(wherein all symbols are as defined in the specification), a non-toxic acid thereof or a hydrate thereof as active ingredient. Because of having an effect of regulating PPAR, a compound of formula (I) is useful as a hypoglycemic agent, a hypolipidemic agent, a preventive and/or a remedy for diseases associating metabolic disorders (diabetes, obesity, syndrome X, hypercholesterolemia, hyperlipoproteinemia, etc.), hyperlipemia, atherosclerosis, hypertension, circulatory diseases, overeating, coronary heart diseases, etc., an HDL cholesterol-elevating agent, an LDL cholesterol and/or VLDL cholesterol-lowering agent and a drug for relief from risk factors of diseases or syndrome X.

A compound of formula (I)(wherein all symbols are as defined in the specification) and salt thereof, and peroxisome proliferator activated receptor regulator comprising thereof as active ingredient. Because a compound of formula (I) have an activity of regulating peroxisome proliferator activated receptor regulator, the compound of formula (I) is useful as a hypoglycemic agent, a hypolipidemic agent, a preventive and/or treatment agent for diseases associating metabolic disorders (diabetes, obesity, syndrome X, hypercholesterolemia, hyperlipoproteinemia, etc.), hyperlipemia, atherosclerosis, hypertension, circulatory diseases, overeating, coronary heart diseases, etc., an HDL cholesterol-elevating agent, an LDL cholesterol and/or VLDL cholesterol-lowering agent and a drug for relief from risk factors of diabetes or syndrome X.
