Abstract: Disclosed herein are calcitonin mimetics that are acylated at a lysine residue located at the 11 position or 19 position of the calcitonin mimetic, and the use thereof as medicaments in the treatment of various diseases and disorders, including diabetes, excess bodyweight, excessive food consumption and metabolic syndrome, NASH, alcoholic and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, the regulation of blood glucose levels, the regulation of response to glucose tolerance tests, the regulation of food intake, and the treatment of osteoporosis and the treatment of osteoarthritis.

Abstract: The present invention relates to humanised calcitonin mimetics and their use in treating diabetes (Type I and/or Type II), excess bodyweight, excessive food consumption, metabolic syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, alcoholic fatty liver disease, osteoporosis, or osteoarthritis, poorly regulated blood glucose levels, poorly regulated response to glucose tolerance tests, or poor regulation of food intake.

Abstract: Calcitonin analogues as a medicament for producing a decrease in liver triglycerides or for reducing fat accumulation in the liver of a subject are provided.

Abstract: Calcitonin mimetic peptides having an amino acid sequence in accordance with SEQ ID NO:8 or SEQ ID NO:53, each of which may be carboxylated at its N-terminal or otherwise modified to reduce the positive charge of the first amino acid and independently of that may be amidated at its C-terminal, and in each of which the 1 and 7 position cysteine residues may together be replaced by ?-aminosuberic acid (Asu) are useful for methods of treating diabetes (Type I and/or Type II), obesity, excessive food consumption, metabolic syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, osteoporosis, or osteoarthritis, poorly regulated blood glucose levels, poorly regulated response to glucose tolerance tests, or poorly regulated food intake.

Abstract: Provided herein are methods for the treatment of type I diabetes, Type II diabetes, metabolic syndrome, or obesity, or of appetite suppression, or for mitigating insulin resistance, or for reducing an undesirably high fasting serum glucose level, or for reducing an undesirably high peak serum glucose level, or for reducing an undesirably high peak serum insulin level, or for reducing an undesirably large response to a glucose tolerance test in synergistic combination with metformin. A peptide selected from sequences SEQ ID NO: 12, SEQ ID NO: 15 and SEQ ID NO: 17 are administered.
