Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF), a potent neurotrophic factor with restorative effects in a variety of rodent and primate models of Parkinson's disease (PD), could be of therapeutic value to PD. In this study, we show that intraventricul ...
A common method to induce enhanced short-term endogenous porphyrin synthesis and accumulation in cell is the topical, systemic application of 5-aminolevulinic acid or one of its derivatives. This circumvents the intravenous administration of photosensitize ...
Amyloid plaques in brain, composed of aggregates of amyloid-beta peptide, play a central role in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease and represent a good target for treatment. We have shown previously that a 5-amino acid beta-sheet breaker peptide (iAb ...
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is a potent inhibitor of neurotransmitter release through the Y2 receptor subtype. Specific antagonists for the Y2 receptors have not yet been described, Based on the concept of template-assembled synthetic proteins we have used a cycl ...
Comprehensive counterion activity studies have revealed clear influence of the polyelectrolyte concn. and chain length on the polyion-counterion interaction, neither of which is evident from the existing theor. models. The counterion activity coeff. (fa) i ...
A review. With the advances in genomics, proteomics and functional genomics new therapeutic targets to be tackled by medicinal chem. are expected. This article reviews applications of first principle methods to address medicinal chem. issue related to drug ...
BACKGROUND: Existing animal models of anemia inadequately reflect the hematocrit usually present in chronic renal failure (CRF) patients and do not permit long-term treatment studies. The transgenic mouse strain 134.3LC (Epo-TAg(H)) displays a severe chron ...
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that affects 1% of the population above the age of 60. The cause of the disease remains unknown. The histopathological hallmarks of the disease are intracytoplasmic Lewy bodies and dopami ...
Several parameters affect clin. trials in photodynamic therapy and influence the therapeutic outcome. Beside drug dose, light dose, drug-light interval and other variables, the fluence rate is a parameter that can influence the therapeutic results. In this ...
Huntington's disease (HD) is an inherited disorder characterized by cognitive impairments, motor deficits, and progressive dementia. These symptoms result from progressive neurodegenerative changes mainly affecting the neostriatum. This pathology is fatal ...
