摘要:
The invention provides for the use of carbonic anhydrase activators; protein kinase C activators and FGF-18 to treat depressive disorders. The invention also relates to improved animal models and methods for screening and identifying compounds the treatment of depressive disorders.
摘要:
The invention provides a method for modulating attentive cognition comprising administering a compound that alters intraneuronal carbonic anhydrase activity thereby affecting establishment of a theta rhythm. The metabolic pathway of the compound preferably involves bicarbonate-mediated GABAergic depolarization. The term “attentive cognition” is meant to encompass memory formation, learning, spatial memory, and attention. The modulating may be stimulating, or the compound may have the multiple effects of inhibiting intraneuronal carbonic anhydrase activity, establishment of a theta rhythm, and memory acquisition. The invention further provides a method of modulating memory and attention comprising switching theta rhythm on and off, the switching comprising potentiating or inhibiting intraneuronal carbonic anhydrase activity.

摘要:
The present invention relates to the combination of a methylxanthine and a carbonic anhydrase activator to provide synergistic effects. The invention further relates to the improved/enhanced cognitive ability of individuals, particularly those suffering from various disorders, such as Alzheimer's Disease, stroke, hypoxia, general dementia, ADHD, mental retardation, and “sun down” syndrome.
摘要:
The invention provides for the use of protein kinase activators or boosters of nerve growth factor (NGF), brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) or other neurotrophic factors to treat stroke. Specifically, the present invention provides methods of treating stroke comprising the steps of identifying a subject having suffered a stroke and administering to said subject an amount of a pharmaceutical composition comprising a protein kinase C (PKC) activator or 4-methylcatechol acetic acid (MCBA) and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier effective to treat at least one symptom of stroke.
