Publication number: 20190183824Abstract: A method of treating a movement abnormality associated with the pathology of a neurological movement disorder, such as Parkinson's disease or Restless Leg(s) Syndrome by administering a therapeutically effective amount of a PDE7 inhibitory agent. An aspect of the invention provides for the administration of a PDE& inhibitory agent in conjunction with a dopamine agonist or precursor, such as levodopa. In another aspect of the invention, the PDE7 inhibitory agent may be selective for PDE7 relative to other molecular targets (i) known to be involved with the pathology of Parkinson's disease or (ii) at which other drug(s) that are therapeutically effective to treat Parkinson's disease act.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 6, 2018Publication date: June 20, 2019Inventors: John E. Bergmann, Neil S. Cutshall, Gregory A. Demopulos, Vincent A. Florio, George A. Gaitanaris, Patrick Gray, John Hohmann, Rene Onrust, Hongkui Zeng

Patent number: 10292374Abstract: The present invention provides GPCR polypeptides and polynucleotides, recombinant materials, and transgenic mice, as well as methods for their production. The polypeptides and polynucleotides are useful, for example, in methods of diagnosis and treatment of diseases and disorders. The invention also provides methods for identifying compounds (e.g., agonists or antagonists) using the GPCR polypeptides and polynucleotides of the invention, and for treating conditions associated with GPCR dysfunction with the GPCR polypeptides, polynucleotides, or identified compounds. The invention also provides diagnostic assays for detecting diseases or disorders associated with inappropriate GPCR activity or levels.Type: GrantFiled: November 10, 2016Date of Patent: May 21, 2019Assignee: Omeros CorporationInventors: George A. Gaitanaris, John E. Bergmann, Alexander Gragerov, John Hohmann, Fusheng Li, Linda Madisen, Kellie L. McIlwain, Maria N. Pavlova, Demetri Vassilatis, Hongkui Zeng
