Adiponectin secretion enhancer
The present disclosure provides for the administration of β-NMN, which increases the secretion of adiponectin. The present disclosure also provides an adiponectin secretion enhancer comprising β-nicotinamide mononucleotide, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof or a solvate thereof, and a dietary supplement containing the aforementioned secretion enhancer, which can be ingested in order to increase the secretion of adiponectin. Also disclosed are methods of treating insulin resistance-related diseases such as of metabolic syndrome, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, fatty liver disease, hypertension, obesity, and arteriosclerosis.
1. A method for enhancing adiponectin secretion, comprising administering to a subject with a disease related to insulin resistance caused by decreased secretion of adiponectin a pharmaceutically effective amount of β-nicotinamide mononucleotide, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof or a solvate thereof, wherein the disease related to insulin resistance is selected from the group consisting of metabolic syndrome, a fatty liver disease, hypertension, and arteriosclerosis.
2. The method in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the pharmaceutically effective amount of β-nicotinamide mononucleotide, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or a solvate thereof increases adiponectin secretion of adipocytes by 20% or more.
3. The method in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the administering a pharmaceutically effective amount of β-nicotinamide mononucleotide, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or a solvate thereof is orally administering a pharmaceutically effective amount of β-nicotinamide mononucleotide, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or a solvate thereof.
4. The method in accordance with claim 3 , wherein the oral administration comprises adding the β-nicotinamide mononucleotide, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or a solvate thereof to the subject's food or drink.
5. The method in accordance with claim 3 , comprising adding to the subject's drink a powder comprising the pharmaceutically effective amount of β-nicotinamide mononucleotide, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or a solvate thereof.
6. The method in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the subject is a mammal.
7. The method in accordance with claim 6 , wherein the mammal is a human.
8. A method in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the fatty liver disease is selected from the group consisting of alcoholic fatty liver disease and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.
9. A method in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the pharmaceutically effective amount of β-nicotinamide mononucleotide, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof or a solvate thereof is in a formulation further comprising at least one additional active ingredient.
10. A method in accordance with claim 9 , wherein the at least one additional active ingredient is selected from the group consisting of an adipocyte differentiation promoting substance, a fat accumulation inhibitory substance, a lipolysis promoting substance, and a fat metabolism improving substance.
11. A method in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the method further comprises administering a substance selected from the group consisting of taurine, glutathione, carnitine, creatine, coenzyme Q, glucuronic acid, glucuronolactone, capsicum extract, ginger extract, cacao extract, guarana extract, garcinia extract, theanine, γ-aminobutyric acid, capsaicin, capsiate, various organic acids, flavonoids, polyphenols, catechins, xanthine derivatives, and indigestible oligosaccharides.
12. A method in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the administering comprises administering 0.1 mg to 10 g of β-NMN per day.
