NLS Pharmaceutics Highlights Preclinical Results For Parkinson's Disease Treatments
Key findings
- AEX-23: Its pronounced action as an OX1R agonist combined with positive effects on neurite outgrowth at specific concentrations suggests that it may modulate neuronal health through pathways influencing α-synuclein dynamics, making it a potential therapeutic candidate to improve neuronal connectivity and resilience in PD.
- AEX-19: Its effects at low concentrations on neurite growth coupled with OX1R agonist activity and a moderate increase in CTSD activity suggest potential neuroprotective benefits in PD.
- AEX-24: The increase in CTSD activity and agonist activity on OX1R suggests the potential to enhance α-synuclein degradation, highlighting its promising therapeutic impact on PD.
