Peptoid Agonists of Nerve Growth Factor and Their Use as Medicaments

InactiveUS20120237552A1Preventing and treating nerve cell deathPreventing and treating and damageSenses disorderNervous disorderSide effectHalf-life
Neurotrophin binding to its specific receptors Trk A and p75 leads to the activation of multiple signalling cascades, culminating in neuroprotective and regenerative effects, including neuronal survival and neurite outgrowth. Neurotrophic factors have been used for the treatment of several neurodegenerative diseases. However, their use is limited by their inability to cross the blood-brain barrier, their short half life and their side effects. Small molecule neurotrophin mimetics may be beneficial in treating a number of neurodegenerative disorders. The present invention shows the capacity of nerve growth factor agonist molecules of Formulae I-IV, as defined in the specification, to induce differentiation in PC 12 cells, promote survival in RN22 cells and activate Trk A, IkBa and SAPK / JNK phosphorylation to various extents in both cell lines. In addition these molecules were able to ameliorate acute experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), a multiple sclerosis (MS) animal model, inhibiting brain inflammation and reducing brain damage. We also observed suppression in the production of pro-inflammatory genes like the inducible nitric oxide synthase. These small molecules with NGF agonist activity may be beneficial for MS and other neurodegenerative diseases due to its neuroprotective and immunomodulatory properties.

Methods of suppression of rage gene expression and rage triggered inflammatory genes by selected age-inhibitors

Accelerated formation of advanced glycation / lipoxidation end products (AGEs / ALEs) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of various diabetic complications. Several natural and synthetic compounds have been proposed and tested as inhibitors of AGE / ALE formation. We have previously reported the therapeutic effects of several new AGE / ALE inhibitors on the prevention of nephropathy and dyslipidemia in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats. In this study, we investigated the effects of various concentrations of LR-90 on the progression of renal disease and its effects on AGE and receptor for AGE (RAGE) protein expression on the kidneys of diabetic STZ-rats. In vitro studies were also performed to determine if LR-90 could inhibit the expression of various pro-inflammatory mediators in human monocytic cells.
