  • Patent number: 12213955
    Abstract: AM580 and structurally related compounds have been found to be useful in treating infection by a wide range of RNA and DNA viruses, and also in reducing associated inflammation. This activity is independent of RAR-? signaling, and is not a result of activation of the hosts innate immune response. Broad antiviral activity of AM580 and structurally related compounds is a due to modulation of lipogenesis so as to correct disregulation of this pathway in virus-infected cells, via inhibition of nSREPBP.

  • Patent number: 12042479
    Abstract: Mutations in keratin genes or the genes that regulate keratin expression can result in epithelial cells lacking sufficient structural integrity. The resulting disruption of connective tissue gives rise to inherited disorders such epidermolysis bullosa. It has been found that various cannabinoids (including mixtures of cannabidiols and cannabinol) upregulate expression of various keratins such that loss of function in other keratin genes may be compensated for. By way of this upregulation, these cannabinoids can be used to treat epidermolysis bullosa and other connective tissue disorders arising from intermediate filament dysfunction.
