20140323408 | METHOD OF INHIBITING DOPAMINERGIC CELL DEATH - Soluble Neuregulin-1 isoforms representing Posttranslational Neuregulin-1 modifications for reducing dopaminergic cell death. | 10-30-2014 |
20140271922 | PIRENZEPINE AS AN AGENT IN CANCER TREATMENT - The present invention generally relates to the neuroprotective activity of condensed diazepinones, e.g. condensed benzodiazepinones such as pirenzepine or compounds which are metabolized to condensed benzodiazepinones such as olanzapine. These compounds are suitable as co-medicaments for the prevention and/or treatment of drug-induced neurotoxic effects in general and neurotoxic side effects during cancer treatments with cytostatic drugs such as platinum-derivatives, e.g. cis-, carbo- and oxaliplatin, taxanes, bleomycin, cyclophosphamide and vincristine etc. Further, these compounds have an intrinisic anti-cancer activity on their own due to PARP-1 inhibition, which prevents NADH depletion in oxidative metabolism of healthy cells thus preventing the shift to anoxygenic, glycolytic metabolism present in many types of tumour cells thus eliminating this crucial metabolic advantage favouring tumour growth. These results exploit the fact of differential PARP-1 expression between many cancer cells and healthy tissues. | 09-18-2014 |

20110263574 | PIRENZEPINE AS OTOPROTECTIVE AGENT - The present invention generally relates to the otoprotective activity of condensed diazepinones, e.g. condensed benzodiazepines such as pirenzepine or compounds which are metabolized to condensed benzodiazepinones such as olanzapine. These compounds are suitable as medicaments for the prevention and/or treatment of otic diseases, e.g. diseases associated with loss of hearing. | 10-27-2011 |
20110177536 | NOVEL ANTIBODIES RECOGNIZING NATIVE ANNEXIN A3 - The present invention refers to novel antibodies recognizing native annexin A3. These antibodies are suitable for diagnostic and therapeutic applications. | 07-21-2011 |
20110143366 | PROTEIN BIOMARKERS FOR IN VITRO TESTING OF DEVELOPMENTAL TOXICITY AND ENBRYOTOXICITY OF CHEMICAL SUBSTANCES - Presently, the toxicological assessment of chemicals is mainly performed in vivo using a variety of animal species and in addition taking into account human clinical, biochemical, pathological and morphological data. Over the past years it became increasingly clear that some substances are particularly harmful for children and thus there is a focus on the special vulnerability of the developing human brain. Meanwhile there is a recommendation to test substances with a known neurotoxic or teratogenic (in particular a neuroteratogenic) risk additionally for embryotoxicity. Moreover the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) requires embryotoxicity tests for pesticides. Further tests are required if substances shall be used as medicaments (S7A Safety Pharmacology Studies for Human Pharmaceuticals, Guidelines of the International Conference on Harmonization, ICH, 2001). | 06-16-2011 |
20100233160 | Monoclonal Anti-Annexin A3 Antibodies for the Detection of Prostate Carcinoma - The present invention relates to a method for the diagnosis of prostate carcinoma comprising the determination of annexin A3, particularly of extracellular annexin A3 with highly specific antibodies, particularly with monoclonal antibodies. The present invention further refers to a test reagent comprising such antibodies. | 09-16-2010 |
20100129834 | AUTOIMMUNE REGULATION OF PROSTATE CANCER BY ANNEXIN A3 - The present invention relates to a method for the diagnosis of prostate carcinoma comprising the determination of annexin A3 (ANXA3) and/or autoantibodies against ANXA3 with a specific reagent. The method allows differentiation between benign, premalignant and malignant conditions. Further, the method has a prognostic relevance. | 05-27-2010 |

The invention also features generally the use of a modulator compound of neuroprotective conditions via beta subunits of shaker-type voltage-gated potassium channels and/or via members of solute carriers family 25, in particular Aralar (member 12) and adenine-nucleotide translocators 1 & 2 (member 4 & 5) and/or via a 4-nitrophenylphosphatase domain and non-neuronal SNAP25-like protein homolog 1 (NIPSNAP 1) as a neuroprotective medicament, particularly as a medicament for the prevention and/or treatment of neurological diseases such as dementia, Parkinson, Alzheimer, schizophrenia or epilepsy.
