Title:
METHODS RELATED TO THE TREATMENT OF NEURODEGENERATIVE AND INFLAMMATORY CONDITIONS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2005112931
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The invention includes methods of neuroprotection, inducing release of neurotrophic factors, inhibiting the over-activation of innate immune cells, attenuating the toxin-induced death and/or damage of tissues, reducing inflammation, treating an inflammation-related condition, and inhibiting NADPH oxidase, that includes contacting or administering an effective amount of at least one compound of the invention that include: valproic acid, sodium butyrate, and salts thereof; opioid peptides; a peptide comprising the tripeptide GGF; and morphinans, such as naloxone, naltrexone, 3-hydroxy-morphinan and dextromethorphan.
