Title:
NERVE CELL ACTIVATOR
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2022/080473
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present inventors found that the indolinone compound of the present invention has excellent effect of activating nerve cells. The present inventors further found that the function mechanism of the effect of activating nerve cells is based on the promotion of the expression of a protein that relates to the BDNF signaling system and/or the VEGF signaling system. Thus, the indolinone compound of the present invention is usable as a therapeutic agent for various neuropsychiatric diseases. Moreover, this compound can protect transplanted neural progenitor cells and, therefore, is usable as an adjunct in regenerative medicine. The present inventors established a method for inducing the differentiation of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS cells) into nerve cells at a high efficiency without through the formation of an embryonic body (cell aggregate) in a xeno-free culture system. By this method, nerve cells, which contained no factor derived from a different organism, were affected neither by unidentified components nor by interlot differences and had characteristics of a disease patient, were successfully prepared. As a result, it becomes possible to stably screen and analyze a compound for the treatment of a neurological disease for drug discovery.
