  • Patent number: 7511034
    Abstract: Novel dialkylhydroxybenzoic acid derivatives containing metal chelating groups are disclosed. The novel compounds are used as therapeutics for treating and/or preventing various medical dysfunctions and diseases arising from reactive oxygen species and/or excess Zn ions, in particular stroke, Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease. The compounds have not only low toxicity but also similar or superior LPO inhibition activity to references. They also effectively inhibit the cerebral neuronal cell death by ROS and/or zinc ion, and show neuroprotective effects against ischemic neuronal degeneration.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20070122504
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a grape seed extract showing neuronal cell protecting activity and the composition comprising the same having neuronal cell protecting activity for preventing and treating degenerative brain disease. The grape seed extract shows potent inhibiting activity of neuronal cell apoptosis occurred in brain ischemia as well as no toxicity, therefore, it can be used as the therapeutics or health food for treating and preventing degenerative brain diseases.

  • Patent number: 6815459
    Abstract: The present invention provides novel seleno compounds containing nitrone moiety, a process for preparing the same, the use of the novel compounds as therapeutics for treating and/or preventing various medical dysfunctions and diseases arising from reactive oxygen species, in particular stroke, Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease. The compounds of the invention have similar or superior lipid peroxidation (LPO) inhibition activity to the reference compounds. While showing lower toxicity and better water solubility, they also effectively inhibit the cerebral neuronal cell death caused by ROS and show neuroprotective effects against ischemic neuronal degeneration.

  • Publication number: 20040058856
    Abstract: This invention relates to delivery of biologically active organic molecules e.g. peptides or proteins into the cytoplasm. In this invention, transducing domain which is covalently attached to organic molecules is oligolysine which comprise 3-12 lysine residues. The oligolysine transducing domain-binding fusion protein is efficiently transducible into cytoplasm, and biologically active.
