Claim: |
1. A method of regenerating functional alpha or beta cells in the islets of Langerhans of a non-rodent mammal comprising administration of an effective amount of a peptide comprising Seq ID No. 3. |
Claim: |
2. The method of claim 1 wherein the normal biofeedback mechanisms for insulin regulation are maintained. |
Claim: |
3. The method according to claim 2 wherein the pharmaceutical composition comprises from about 0.1 mg to about 300 mg of the polypeptide. |
Claim: |
4. The method according to claim 2 wherein the pharmaceutical composition comprises from about 5 mg to about 150 mg of the polypeptide. |
Claim: |
5. The method of claim 2 wherein the administration is at a frequency selected from the group consisting of daily, twice daily, three times daily, weekly, biweekly, monthly, continuous infusion and combinations thereof. |
Claim: |
6. The method of claim 2 wherein the pharmaceutical composition is administered for a period of at least 30 days. |
Claim: |
7. A method of increasing beta cell mass in the islets of Langerhans of a non-rodent mammal comprising administration of an effective amount of a peptide comprising Seq ID No. 3. |
Claim: |
8. The method of claim 6 wherein the normal biofeedback mechanisms for insulin regulation are maintained. |
Claim: |
9. The method according to claim 6 wherein the pharmaceutical composition comprises from about 0.1 mg to about 300 mg of the polypeptide. |
Claim: |
10. The method according to claim 6 wherein the pharmaceutical composition comprises from about 5 mg to about 150 mg of the polypeptide. |
Claim: |
11. The method of claim 6 wherein the administration is at a frequency selected from the group consisting of daily, twice daily, three times daily, weekly, biweekly, monthly, continuous infusion and combinations thereof. |
Claim: |
12. The method of claim 6 wherein the pharmaceutical composition is administered for a period of at least 30 days. |
Claim: |
13. A method of establishing normal physiological glucose regulation in a mammal in need of such a treatment comprising administering to the mammal a therapeutically effective amount of a peptide comprising Seq ID No. 3. |
Claim: |
14. The method according to claim 13 wherein the pharmaceutical composition comprises from about 0.1 mg to about 300 mg of the polypeptide. |
Claim: |
15. The method according to claim 13 wherein the pharmaceutical composition comprises from about 5 mg to about 150 mg of the polypeptide. |
Claim: |
16. The method of claim 13 wherein the administration is at a frequency selected from the group consisting of daily, twice daily, three times daily, weekly, biweekly, monthly, continuous infusion and combinations thereof. |
Claim: |
17. The method of claim 13 wherein the pharmaceutical composition is administered for a period of at least 30 days. |
