METHODS FOR TREATING DIABETES

摘要

Disclosed are methods for the treatment of diabetes by administering a composition comprising a pharmaceutically acceptable amount of a dual inhibitor of both 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) and 12/15-lipoxygenase (12/15-LO) enzymes or of both 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) and 15-lipoxygenase (15-LO) enzymes. The invention is also directed to methods of controlling blood glucose level in diabetic patients with a dual inhibitor of both 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) and 12/15-lipoxygenase (12/15-LO) enzymes or of both 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) and 15-lipoxygenase (15-LO) enzymes.
