摘要:
A non-human animal in which a gene coding for the N-type calcium channel is disrupted to lack functional N-type calcium channel, and a method for screening for a substance having a pharmacological action on blood pressure control, transmission of pain, blood sugar level control and so forth by using the animal.
摘要:
The present invention provides a novel compound having a superior calcium antagonism, in particular, a neuron-selective calcium antagonism. Namely, it provides a compound represented by the following formula, a salt thereof or a hydrate of them. In the formula, Ar indicates an optionally substituted 5- to 14-membered aromatic ring etc.; the ring A indicates any one ring selected from a piperazine, a homopiperazine, a piperidine and the like; the ring B indicates an optionally substituted C3-14 on hydrocarbon ring etc.; E indicates a single bond, a group represented by the formula —CO—, etc.; X indicates a single bond, an oxygen atom etc.; R1 indicates a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, a hydroxyl group etc.; and D1, D2, W1 and W2 are the same as or different from each other and each represents a single bond or an optionally substituted C1-6 alkylene chain.
摘要:
The invention provides an N,N-substituted cyclic amine compound represented by the following formula (VIII): wherein A represents an aryl group etc.; E represents a group represented by the formula —CO— or a group represented by the formula —CHOH—; G represents an oxygen atom etc.; J represents an aryl group which may be substituted; R1 represents a lower alkyl group etc.; Alk represents a linear or branched lower alkylene group; n, v, w, x and y are independent of each other and each represents 0 or 1; and p represents 2 or 3, or a pharmacologically acceptable salt thereof. The compound of the present invention or a salt thereof is effective to treat a disease against which calcium antagonism is effective. The disease may include acute ischemic stroke, cerebral apoplexy, cerebral infarction, head trauma, cerebral nerve cell death, Alzheimer disease, Parkinson disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Huntington disease, cerebral circulatory metabolism disturbance, cerebral function disturbance, pain, spasm, schizophrenia, migraine, epilepsy, maniac-depressive psychosis, nerve degenerative diseases, cerebral ischemia, AIDS dementia complications, edema, anxiety disorder (generalized anxiety disorder) and diabetic neuropathy.
摘要:
The present invention provides a novel compound that is structurally similar to curcumin and has a suppressive effect on Aβ aggregation, a degradative effect on Aβ aggregates, an inhibitory effect on β-secretase, and a protective effect on neurons. The novel compound is a compound represented by the following general formula (Ia) or a salt thereof: wherein R1 represents a 4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl group or the like, and R2 represents a 1H-indol-6-yl group or the like.
摘要:
According to the present invention, there is provided a method of screening for a substance useful for transdifferentiation of microglia into neurons, a method of producing neurons, and a method of treating a neurologic disorder.
