Summary:To provide a method of treating an insulin receptor disorder (INSR disorder) such as type 1 diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia, hyperglycemia, hypoglycemia, glucose intolerance, HIV-HAART induced partial lipodystrophy, metabolic syndrome, and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).SOLUTION: The method comprises administering, to a patient having the INSR disorder, a therapeutically effective amount of (a) an isolated human FGF21 polypeptide; or (b) an FGF21 protein variant. Preferably, the FGF21 protein variant is Variant 76 or an Fc fusion protein.SELECTED DRAWING: None 【課題】1型糖尿病、脂質異常症、高血糖症、低血糖症、耐糖能異常、HIV/HAART誘導性部分型リポジストロフィー、メタボリック症候群、非アルコール性脂肪肝疾患(NAFLD)等のインスリン受容体障害(INSR障害)を処置する方法の提供。【解決手段】INSR障害を有する患者に、治療有効量の(a)単離ヒトFGF21ポリペプチド;又は(b)FGF21タンパク質変異体を投与するステップを含む方法。前記FGF21タンパク質変異体が変異体76、又はFc融合タンパク質であることが好ましい。【選択図】なし
