Provided herein are FGFR1/KLB targeting agonistic antigen-binding proteins, or fragments thereof, having improved physico-chemical properties. Also provided herein are conjugates comprising an FGFR1/KLB targeting agonistic antigen-binding protein, or a fragment thereof, and at least one GLP-1R agonistic peptide. Further provided are pharmaceutical compositions comprising the antibody (or fragment thereof), or the conjugate provided herein, and the use of the antibody (or fragment thereof), or the use of the conjugate in medicine.

FGFR1/KLB targeting agonistic antigen-binding proteins and conjugates thereof with GLP-1R agonistic peptides

The present invention relates to polypeptide variants of human fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) and fusion molecules thereof, as well as to nucleic acid molecules encoding the same. It further relates to their use as medicaments, in particular for the treatment of obesity, overweight, metabolic syndrome, diabetes mellitus, hyperglycemia, dyslipidemia, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and/or atherosclerosis.

FGF21 variants

The present invention relates to combinations, pharmaceutical compositions and fusion molecules comprising an FGF21 (fibroblast growth factor 21) compound and a GLP-1R (glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor) agonist with optimized GLP-1R agonist/FGF21 compound activity ratio. It further relates to their use as medicaments, in particular for the treatment of obesity, being overweight, metabolic syndrome, diabetes mellitus, diabetic retinopathy, hyperglycemia, dyslipidemia, Non-Alcoholic SteatoHepatitis (NASH) and/or atherosclerosis.

FGF21 compound / GLP-1R agonist combinations with optimized activity ratio

The invention relates to novel insulin analogs having a basal time-action profile, which are characterized by the following features: a) the B chain end consists of an amidated basic amino acid residue such as lysine or arginine amide; b) the N-terminal amino acid residue of the insulin A chain is a lysine or arginine radical; c) the amino acid position A8 is occupied by a histidine radical; d) the amino acid position A21 is occupied by a glycine radical; and e) one or more substitutions and/or additions of negatively charged amino acid residues are carried out in the positions A5, A15, A18, B-1, B0, B1, B2, B3 and B4.

Insulin derivatives having an extremely delayed time-action profile

The invention relates to novel insulin analogs having a basal time-action profile, which are characterized by the addition and/or substitution of negatively and positively charged amino acid residues and by an amidation of the C-terminal carboxy group of the B chain and histidine in position 8 of the insulin A chain. The invention also relates to the production and use thereof.

The present invention relates to a method for the identification of an IRS protein kinase inhibitor, comprising the steps of a) bringing into contact PKC-&#x3b6; with at least one IRS peptide comprising at least one PKC-&#x3b6;-Ser-phosphorylation site in the presence of at least one possible inhibitor, and b) measuring the phosphorylation of the PKC-&#x3b6;-Ser-phosphorylation site.
