  • Publication number: 20130123248
    Abstract: Antagonists of group 1 metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluR) potentiate the effect of positive AMPA receptor modulators on neurotrophin expression, such as brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). The findings described herein suggest a combinatorial approach for drug therapies, using both positive AMPA receptor modulators and mGluR antagonists, to enhance brain neurotrophism.
    Type: Application
    Filed: October 17, 2012
    Publication date: May 16, 2013
    Applicant: The Regents of the University of California
    Inventors: Julie C. Lauterborn, Christine M. Gall, Gary Lynch

  • Patent number: 6030968
    Abstract: Methods for increasing the level of neurotrophic factors and neurotrophic factor receptors in the brain of a mammal afflicted with a pathology which produces neurodegeneration without significant loss of memory or learning comprising administering to a mammal an effective amount of an allosteric upmodulator of .alpha.-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-isoxazole-4-proprionic acid (AMPA) receptors.
