Hepatocyte-targeting vehicle for delivery of glargine insulin to a mammal

摘要

The instant invention is drawn to a hepatocyte targeted composition comprising a mixture of free glargine insulin and glargine insulin associated with a water insoluble target molecule complex, wherein the complex comprises multiple linked individual units and a supra-molecular lipid construct matrix. Glargine insulin is present within the complex in at least one form wherein the glargine insulin has a positive charge which interacts with a negative charge on the complex. The invention also includes methods for the manufacture of the composition and methods of managing blood glucose levels in individuals with Type I and Type II diabetes.
