This invention is a method of killing the stealthy intra-cellular bacteria which cause many Th1 and `Autoimmune` diseases. The methods described in this invention will treat and prevent the diseases customarily named Diabetes Type 1, Diabetes Type 2, Rheumatic Arthritis, Reactive Arthritis, Osteo Arthritis, Psoriasis, Scleroderma, Osteoporosis, Atherosclerosis, Myocarditis, Endocarditis, Pericarditis, Alzheimer's, Cystic Fibrosis, Hashimoto's Thyroiditis, Graves Disease, Leprosy, Syphilis, Lyme, Chronic Lyme, Borreliosis, Neuro-borreliosis, Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), Tuberculosis, Latent Tuberculosis, Sarcoidosis, Neurosarcoidosis, Lupus, Discoid Lupus, Lupus Pernio, Lupus Nephritis, Systemic Lupus Erythematosis (SLE), Asthma, Macular Degeneration, Uveitis, Crohn's, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, Sjogren's, Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue Syndrom (CFS), Chronic Fatigue Immune Dysfunction Syndrome (CFIDS), Myalgic Encephalitis (ME), Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), Parkinson's, Multiple Sclerosis, Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD), and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). This invention achieves this by reducing the ability of the stealthy bacteria to produce proteins with their 70S Ribosome. The 30S and 50S subunits of the bacterial ribosome are targeted individually and collectively. Further, this invention reduces the availability of Angiotensin II to the host's Angiotensin receptors, conditioning the immune system to recognize and kill the bacteria. Finally, this invention reduces the availability of Angiotensin II and cytokines to the bacterial pathogens and thus inhibits the ability of their genome to scavenge (from a host patient) the amino acids, and other biochemicals necessary for bacterial survival.

Treatment and prevention of Th1 and `autoimmune` diseases effected with antibiotics and/or angiotensin inhibition

The present invention relates to novel isolated strains of Bifidobacterium adolescentis which are capable of i) increasing the trans-epithelial electrical resistance (TER) of a Caco-2 cell monolayer after 10 h treatment to more than 120% of TER at treatment start, ii) inducing secretion of &gt;200 pg/ml of IL-10, and/or iii) inducing an IL-10:IL-12 ratio &gt;1 when co-incubated with human PBMC derived dendritic cells. The strains may have one, two or all three of these capabilities. The present invention relates to the use of these novel strains for the in prevention, alleviation of symptoms, and treatment of diseases or conditions with an underlying impaired intestinal barrier function and pro-inflammatory activation of the mucosa. More specifically, the present invention relates to se of an isolated strain according to the invention for the prevention, alleviation of symptoms, or treatment of intestinal inflammatory conditions such as IBD and IBS, liver diseases such as NAFLD, NASH, cirrhosis, and alcohol-related liver disease, metabolic disorders such as metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, obesity, cardiovascular atherosclerosis, autoimmune diseases, such as celiac disease, type 1 diabetes, multiple sclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis, and mental conditions such as major depressive disorders, a mood disorder, a cognitive chronic fatigue syndrome, and anxiety.

The invention relates to new therapeutically active and selective inhibitors of the enzyme dipeptidyl peptidase-IV, pharmaceutical compositions comprising the compounds and the use of such compounds for treating diseases that are associated with proteins that are subject to processing by DPP-IV, such as Type 2 diabetes mellitus, hyperglycemia, impaired glucose tolerance, metabolic syndrome (Syndrome X or insulin resistance syndrome), glucosuria, metabolic acidosis, cataracts, diabetic neuropathy, diabetic nephropathy, diabetic retinopathy, diabetic cardiomyopathy, Type 1 diabetes, obesity, conditions exacerbated by obesity, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, atherosclerosis, osteoporosis, osteopenia, frailty, bone loss, bone fracture, acute coronary syndrome, infertility due to polycystic ovary syndrome, short bowel syndrome, anxiety, depression, insomnia, chronic fatigue, epilepsy, eating disorders, chronic pain, alcohol addiction, diseases associated with intestinal motility, ulcers, irritable bowel syndrome, inflammatory bowel syndrome and to prevent disease progression in Type 2 diabetes. The invention also relates to a method of identifying an insulin secretagogue agent for diabetes.
