The present invention concerns the use of various forms of GIP-receptor antagonists to attenuate the insulin response to GIP following meals in animals, such as humans, to prevent, reduce, inhibit and/or treat nonalcoholic fatty liver disease by virtue of its prevention and/or reversal of hyperinsulinemia and insulin resistance. Thus, the use of the GIP-receptor antagonists in any effective form is believed to prevent the development and reverse the process of NAFLD. The present invention is accomplished by administering an effective amount of an antagonistic agent, such as a GIP antagonist or an antisense molecule, to antagonize, block, inhibit or ablate the receptor to Glucose-Dependent Insulinotropic Polypeptide (GIP).

L'invention concerne l'utilisation de formes variées d'antagonistes du récepteur GIP pour atténuer la réponse insulinique au GIP, suite à des repas chez des animaux, notamment chez les humains, pour prévenir, pour réduire, pour inhiber et/ou pour traiter une stéatose hépatique non alcoolique, grâce à une prévention et/ou à une inversion de l'hyperinsulinémie et à une résistance à l'insuline. Ainsi, l'utilisation des antagonistes du récepteur GIP, sous une forme quelconque efficace, s'avère prévenir le développement et inverser le processus de la NAFLD. L'invention consiste à administrer une dose efficace d'un agent antagoniste, notamment un antagoniste du GIP ou une molécule anti-sens, pour antagoniser, pour bloquer, pour inhiber ou pour effectuer une ablation du récepteur du polypeptide insulinotropique gluco-dépendant (GIP).
