Prokineticin 2 and Prokineticin Receptor 2 as a Target to Treat Epilepsy and Seizures

詳細技術說明
Researchers at the University of California have found that PK2 is an important regulator of seizure onset and epilepsy. A PKR2 modulator would thus help treat epileptic patients and/or patients suffering from non-epileptic seizures. Certain materials such as cDNAs and cell lines that may be used as screening and research tools are readily available for licensing. This technology is also available for sponsor research opportunities.
*Abstract

PK2 belongs to a family of secreted peptides that regulate diverse biological functions including serving as a regulatory molecule for circadian rhythms. The signaling of PK2 is mediated through two cognate G-protein coupled receptors Prokineticin Receptor 1 and Prokineticin Receptor 2 (PKR1 and PKR2).

Title: Methods for treating cerebrovascular disease comprising administering an agent that inhibits prokineticin receptor activity
Usefulness: Methods for treating cerebrovascular disease comprising administering an agent that inhibits prokineticin receptor activity
Summary: The method is useful for treating cerebrovascular diseases in a subject, preferably mammal or human, including cerebral ischemia (all claimed), cerebral hemorrhage, ischemic stroke, hemorrhagic stroke, ischemic reperfusion injury, seizure disorders, and epilepsy. Tests details are described but no results given.
Novelty: Treating cerebrovascular disease in subject, comprises administering prokineticin receptor antagonist, where infarct size is reduced as compared to infarct size without administration of the antagonist
