  • Publication number: 20250332129
    Abstract: The invention is based on the discovery of a novel compound with analgesic properties which could be used as a new tool for the treatment of pain disorders such as visceral pain. Thus, the invention relates to novel lipopeptide compound, derived from gamma-aminobutyric acid. The invention also relates to a lipopeptide compound according to the invention for the treatment of treating pain disorder, such as somatic pain and visceral pain.

  • Patent number: 11912645
    Abstract: The invention is based on the discovery of a new bacterial compound with analgesic properties which could be used as a new tool for the treatment of pain disorders such as visceral pain. Studying the mechanisms implicated in analgesic properties of the probiotic Escherichia coli strain Nissle 1917 (EcN), inventors characterized, the amino fatty acids produced by EcN, which display the Ecn analgesic properties. One of these compounds inhibits the hypersensitivity to colorectal distension induced by capsaicin, which is a very powerful nociceptive compound and acts via the GABA B receptor. Furthermore, inventors demonstrate that this compound is able to cross the cellular epithelial barrier (such as the intestinal epithelium). Thus, the invention relates to a lipopetide compound, derived from gamma-aminobutyric acid. The invention also relates to a lipopeptide compound according to the invention for the treatment of treating pain disorder, such as somatic pain and visceral pain.

  • Publication number: 20200087403
    Abstract: Thrombosis is the main cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with JAK2V617F positive myeloproliferative neo-plasms (MPN). Recent works reported the presence of JAK2V617F in endothelial cells in some MPN patients. Here, the inventors show that JAK2V617F endothelial cells promote thrombosis through induction of endothelial P-selectin expression and thus demonstrate that P-selectin blockade was sufficient to reduce the increased propensity of thrombosis. Accordingly the present invention relates to a method of treating thrombosis in a patient suffering from a myeloproliferative neoplasm comprising administering to the patient a therapeutically effective amount of a P-selectin antagonist.
