摘要:
A neuronal cell death inhibitor comprising a compound having an inhibitory activity on the production and/or release of glutamic acid in a microglia; by inhibiting the production and/or release in a microglia, neurite bead-like degeneration or neuronal cell death can be inhibited.
摘要:
Disclosed is a gap junction inhibitor which is more practically useful compared with carbenoxolone. Also disclosed is a novel glycyrrhetinic acid derivative. The glycyrrhetinic acid derivative is represented by general formula (1) or (2).

摘要:
The present invention is to provide an inhibitor that inhibits differentiation of T cells into Th1 cells.The inhibitor that inhibits differentiation of T cells into Th1 cells contains, as an active ingredient, pitavastatin or a salt thereof.
摘要:
A method of treating multiple sclerosis including administering Interferon-β and a phosphodiesterase inhibitor in combination in a therapeutically effective amount.
摘要:
The inventors examined the role of MK in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis, which is a human model for multiple sclerosis. As a result, they discovered that MK has the effect of inhibiting regulatory T cells, and that the autoimmune mechanism induced by type 1 helper T cells can be suppressed by inhibiting MK expression or its activity, thereby increasing the number of regulatory T cells. Furthermore, it was found that diseases associated with the functional disorder of regulatory T cells can be treated with the administration of an inhibitor that inhibits MK expression or activity.
