Described are antibody peptide conjugates (APCs) comprising an antibody conjugated to a peptide analog of glucagon, which have been modified to be resistant to cleavage and inactivation by dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-IV) and to increase in vivo half-life of the peptide analog while enabling the peptide analog to have agonist activity at the glucagon (GCG) receptor and the glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor and the use of such APCs for treatment of metabolic disorders such as diabetes, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), and obesity.
所述抗体多肽共轭物(APCs)包括与胰高血糖素多肽类似物共轭的抗体、经改良后可抗二肽基肽酶 IV(DPP-IV)的裂解和失活,并可延长肽类似物的体内半衰期,同时使肽类似物在胰高血糖素(GCG)受体和胰高血糖素样肽 1(GLP-1)受体上具有激动剂活性、非酒精性脂肪肝(NAFLD)、非酒精性脂肪性肝炎(NASH)和肥胖症等代谢性疾病。
