Method And Compositions For Treating And Preventing Seizures By Modulating Acid-Sensing Ion Channel Activity
US Patent:
2009029, Nov 26, 2009
Filed:
May 20, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/469037

Assignee:
UNIVERSITY OF IOWA RESEARCH FOUNDATION - IOWA CITY IA
International Classification:
A61K 33/00, G01N 33/53, A61P 25/08
US Classification:
424700, 435 721
Abstract:
This invention provides novel methods and compositions for treating and preventing seizures by administration of ASIC1a receptor activating compounds. A novel method of assaying ASIC1a receptor activating compounds is included in the present invention. According to the invention applicants have demonstrated that seizure duration, intensity, and progression may be modulated by administration of an ASIC1a receptor activator which acts to increase the endogenous activity of ASIC1a receptors to mediate the effects of low pH in the CNS. The inventors have also found that the ASIC1a receptor activator may prevent such seizures altogether.
