Biochem/physiol Actions

ONO-2506 (arundic acid; (R)-2-propyloctanoic acid) is an inhibitory astrocytes-modulating agent that exerts glioprotective effects against amyloid-β-peptide (Aβ)-induced glial death in astrocyte cultures (50 μM ONO-2506 against 200 μM Aβ25-35, 24 hr; 1321N1 astrocytes) by decreasing both the intracellular and extracellular S100B levels. Blockade of astrocytic activation by ONO-2506 in vivo is shown to offer therapeutic efficacy in animal models of normal tension glaucoma (10 mg/kg po. mice), spinal cord injury (20 mg/kg/d ip or iv rats), brain seizure, ischemic stroke (10 mg/kg/d ip or iv rats), and Parkinson′s disease (30 mg/kg ip mice).

Mild hypoxia increases ventilation, but severe hypoxia depresses it. The mechanism of hypoxic ventilatory depression, in particular, the functional role of the cerebrum, is not fully understood. Recent progress in glial physiology has provided evidence that astrocytes play active roles

Arundic acid (ONO-2506) inhibits the production and release of S100 protein from astrocytes. While numerous studies have assessed the effect of ONO-2506 in the diseased brain, to the best of our knowledge, no study has examined the effect of ONO-2506

A novel agent, (R)-(-)-2-propyloctanoic acid (ONO-2506), has a unique property in that it modulates functions of activated cultured astrocytes, including pronounced inhibition of S-100beta synthesis. The present study examined whether administration of this agent would mitigate the delayed expansion of

Valproic and arundic acids are astrocytes-modulating agents with potential effects in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease (AD). S100B is an astrocytic cytokine with a possible role in the pathogenesis of AD. In this study, we aimed to assess the glioprotective

Glutamate is the major excitatory neurotransmitter in the brain, but excessive synaptic glutamate must be removed to prevent excitotoxic injury and death. Two astrocytic glutamate transporters, excitatory amino acid transporter (EAAT) 1 and 2, play a major role in eliminating
