| 20080306166 | Compositions and Methods For Treatment of Disorders of Protein Aggregation - The invention provides compositions, methods and uses comprising a scyllo-inositol compound that provide beneficial effects in the treatment of a disorder and/or disease including a disorder in protein folding and/or aggregation, and/or amyloid formation, deposition, accumulation, or persistence. | 12-11-2008 |
| 20100144891 | USE OF CYCLOHEXANEHEXOL DERIVATIVES IN THE TREATMENT OF AMYOTROPHIC LATERAL SCLEROSIS - The present invention relates to methods for modulating, disrupting or enhancing the clearance of copper/zinc superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) aggregates in astrocytes or motor neurons in a subject, by administering a medicament comprising a therapeutically effective amount of a cyclohexanehexyl derivative. In another aspect, the invention provides a medicament comprising at least one cyclohexanehexyl derivative of formula III or IV useful in preventing or treating amyothropic lateral sclerosis (ALS), improving motor neuron function and slowing the degeneration or death of motor neurons in brain stem, spinal cord or motor cortex. These medicaments may be administered orally, intravenously, intraperitoneal, subcutaneous, intramuscular, intranasal or transdermal. | 06-10-2010 |
| 20100331267 | USE OF CYCLOHEXANEHEXOL DERIVATIVES IN THE TREATMENT OF ALPHA-SYNUCLEINOPATHIES - The present invention relates to methods for treating α-synucleinopathies, methods for modulating of assembly, folding, accumulation, oligomerization, rate of aggregation, oligomerization and clearance of proteins of fragments comprising α-synuclein aggregates in a subject, by administering a medicament comprising a therapeutically effective amount of a cyclohexanehexyl derivative. More specifically, the invention provides medicaments comprising at least one cyclohexanehexyl derivative of formula (III) or (IV) useful in improving neuron, glia and oligodendrocyte function, for slowing the degeneration and death of neurons, glial cells and oligodendrocytes in the brain and treating synucleinopathies such as Parkinson's disease. These medicaments are formulated for oral and parenteral administration. Formulae (III), (IV). | 12-30-2010 |
| 20110105626 | USE OF CYCLOHEXANEHEXOL DERIVATIVES FOR THE TREATMENT OF POLYGLUTAMINE DISEASES - The present invention relates to methods to modulate the assembly, folding, accumulation, rate of aggregation, oligomerization or clearance of proteins or fragments comprising PoIyQ, by using compositions comprising cyclohexanehexol derivatives. More specifically, the invention provides a medicament comprising cyclohexanehexol derivatives of formula III or formula IV, more particularly a scyllo-inositol compound, analog or derivative thereof, useful in the treatment of polyglutamine diseases, such as Huntington's disease and related neurodegenerative disorders including dentatorubral pallidoluysian atrophy, spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy and spinocerebellar ataxia type 1, 2, 3, 6, 7 and 17. | 05-05-2011 |
