Inhibition of rip kinases for treating neurodegenerative disorders

Unmet NeedNeurodegenerative disorders are a heterogeneous group that includes Alzheimer’s disease (AD), Parkinson’s disease (PD), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), multiple sclerosis (MS), dementia, and Huntington’s disease. These disorders result from progressive degeneration of the structure, function, and network of neurons in the central nervous...

Platform for drug screening in human neurons

Unmet NeedThe WHO has predicted that neurological disorders (NDs) will become the second leading cause of death in 20 years after cardiovascular diseases. Various proteins have been identified to aggregate and accumulate in the brain depending on the indication: amyloid-beta or tau in Alzheimer’s Disease, alpha-synuclein in Parkinson’s disease, and...

Identification of LAG3 as the α-synuclein Neuronal Transmission Receptor

Unmet Need: Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder and leads to slowness of movement, tremor, rigidity, and, in the later stages of PD, cognitive impairment. Pathologically, PD is characterized by the accumulation of α-synuclein in Lewy bodies and neurites. Emerging evidence indicates that the pathogenesis of Parkinson's...
