The invention provides the use of a compound of the formula
[E-DHC] (I)
or a non-toxic pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein [E] is an estrogen and [DHC] is the reduced, biooxidizable, blood-brain barrier penetrating, lipoidal form of a dihydropyridine#pyridinium salt redox carrier in the preparation of a medicament for controlling mammalian body weight. Novel compositions for weight control comprising a compound of formula (I) or its salt are also disclosed. A preferred compound for use herein is an estradiol derivative, namely, 17β-[(1-methy)-1,4-dihydro-3-pyridiny))carbony)oxy]estra-1,3.5(10)-trien-3-ol.
本发明提供了一种式[E-DHC] (I)化合物的用途。
[E-DHC] (I)
或其无毒的药学上可接受的盐,其中[E]是一种雌激素,[DHC]是二氢吡啶#吡啶鎓盐氧化还原载体的还原型、可生物氧化、可透过血脑屏障的脂质形式,用于制备控制哺乳动物体重的药物。还公开了包含式(I)化合物或其盐的用于控制体重的新型组合物。这里使用的一种优选化合物是雌二醇衍生物,即17β-[(1-甲基)-1,4-二氢-3-吡啶))羰基)氧基]雌甾-1,3.5(10)-三烯-3-醇。
