Insulin conjugates comprising an insulin molecule covalently attached to at least one bi-dentate linker having two arms, each arm independently attached to a ligand comprising a saccharide and wherein the saccharide for at least one ligand of the linker is fucose are disclosed. The insulin conjugates display a pharmacokinetic (PK) and/or pharmacodynamic (PD) profile that is responsive to the systemic concentrations of a saccharide such as glucose or alpha-methylmannose even when administered to a subject in need thereof in the absence of an exogenous multivalent saccharide-binding molecule such as Con A.
本发明公开了
胰岛素共轭物,包括一个
胰岛素分子与至少一个双叉联接物共价结合,该联接物具有两个臂,每个臂独立地连接到一个
配体,该
配体包括一个糖和至少一个联接物的糖苷,其中至少一个联接物的糖苷为岩藻糖。即使在没有外源多价糖结合分子(如Con A)的情况下,这些
胰岛素共轭物显示出对系统浓度的
糖类(如
葡萄糖或α-甲基
甘露糖)的药代动力学(PK)和/或药效学(PD)特性的响应,即当其被用于需要该物质的患者时。
