  • Publication number: 20190151304
    Abstract: The present invention relates to methods and pharmaceutical compositions for the treatment of autoimmune inflammatory diseases. The inventors showed that orexin receptor antagonists have anti-inflammatory properties. Indeed, these compounds are antagonist for OX1R-mediated calcium mobilization but a full agonist for OX1R-mediated mitochondrial apoptosis, which is the mechanism involved in the improvement of resolution of inflammation observed in the models of colitis, multiple sclerosis and pancreatitis. In particular, the present invention relates to a method of treating an autoimmune inflammatory disease in a subject in need thereof comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of at least one OX1R antagonist.
