Patent application number | Description | Published |
20080300206 | Alpha-Synuclein Kinase - The invention provides agents and methods for treatment of diseases associated with Lewy body diseases (LBDs) in the brain of a patient. Preferred agents include inhibitors of PLK2 kinase. | 12-04-2008 |
20090035217 | Truncated Fragments of Alpha-Synuclein in Lewy Body Disease - The application identifies novel fragments of alpha-synuclein in patients with Lewy Body Disease (LBD) and transgenic animal models thereof. These diseases are characterized by aggregations of alpha-synuclein. The fragments have a truncated C-terminus relative to full-length alpha-synuclein. Some fragments are characterized by a molecular weight of about 12 kDa as determined by SDS gel electrophoresis in tricine buffer and a truncation of at least ten contiguous amino acids from the C-terminus of natural alpha-synuclein. The site of cleavage preferably occurs after residue 117 and before residue 126 of natural alpha-synuclein. The identification of these novel fragments of alpha-synuclein has a number of application in for example, drug discovery, diagnostics, therapeutics, and transgenic animals. | 02-05-2009 |
20090208487 | Prevention and treatment of synucleinopathic and amyloidogenic disease - The invention provides improved agents and methods for treatment of diseases associated with synucleinopathic diseases, including Lewy bodies of alpha-synuclein in the brain of a patient. Such methods entail administering agents that induce a beneficial immunogenic response against the Lewy body. The methods are particularly useful for prophylactic and therapeutic treatment of Parkinson's disease. | 08-20-2009 |
20100031377 | Prevention and treatment of synucleinopathic and amyloidogenic disease - The invention provides improved agents and methods for treatment of diseases associated with synucleinopathic diseases, including Lewy bodies of alpha-synuclein in the brain of a patient. Such methods entail administering agents that induce a beneficial immunogenic response against the Lewy body. The methods are particularly useful for prophylactic and therapeutic treatment of Parkinson's disease. | 02-04-2010 |
20100143946 | ALPHA-SYNUCLEIN KINASE - The invention provides agents and methods for treatment of diseases associated with Lewy body diseases (LBDs) in the brain of a patient. Preferred agents include inhibitors of PLK2 kinase. | 06-10-2010 |
20100278814 | Prevention and treatment of synucleinopathic and amyloidogenic disease - The invention provides improved agents and methods for treatment of diseases associated with synucleinopathic diseases, including Lewy bodies of alpha-synuclein in the brain of a patient. Such methods entail administering agents that induce a beneficial immunogenic response against the Lewy body. The methods are particularly useful for prophylactic and therapeutic treatment of Parkinson's disease. | 11-04-2010 |
20120201842 | PREVENTION AND TREATMENT OF SYNUCLEINOPATHIC AND AMYLOIDOGENIC DISEASE - The invention provides improved agents and methods for treatment of diseases associated with synucleinopathic diseases, including Lewy bodies of alpha-synuclein in the brain of a patient. Such methods entail administering agents that induce a beneficial immunogenic response against the Lewy body. The methods are particularly useful prophylactic and therapeutic treatment of Parkinson's disease. | 08-09-2012 |
