摘要:
The present invention provides methods for reducing Aβ deposition, Aβ neurotoxicity and microgliosis in an animal or human afflicted with a cerebral amyloidogenic disease, such as Alzheimer's disease (AD), by administering therapeutically effective amounts of the (S)-enantiomer of the dihydropyridine compound nilvadipine, also known as (-)-nilvadipine, to the animal or human. Further provided are methods for reducing the risk of Aβ deposition, Aβ neurotoxicity and microgliosis in animals or humans suffering from traumatic brain injury by administering (-)-nilvadipine after the traumatic brain injury and continuing treatment for a prescribed period of time thereafter.本發明提供一種藉由向患有大腦類澱粉蛋白源性疾病(例如阿茲海默氏病(AD))之動物或人投與治療有效量之二氫吡啶類化合物尼代地平(nilvadipine)之(S)-對映異構物(亦稱為(-)-尼代地平),以減低該動物或人中之Aβ沈積、Aβ神經毒性及微神經膠細胞增生之方法。本發明進一步提供在動物或人受到外傷性大腦損傷後藉由向該動物或人投與(-)-尼代地平且之後繼續進行一段規定時期之治療,以減低該受到外傷性腦損傷之動物或人發生Aβ沈積、Aβ神經毒性及微神經膠細胞增生風險之方法。
