  • Deep brain stimulation devices are intracortical implants used to treat disabling symptoms of neurological conditions such as Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, essential tremor, and dystonia
    WESTON, Fla., April 19, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ZyVersa Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: ZVSA, or “ZyVersa”), a clinical stage specialty biopharmaceutical company developing first-in-class drugs for treatment of inflammatory and renal diseases, is pleased to announce that world renowned inflammasome researchers and inventors of ZyVersa’s Inflammasome ASC Inhibitor IC 100 from the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine have published a scientific paper in the peer-reviewed journal, Biomaterials.
  • In the paper titled, “Activation of inflammasomes and their effects on neuroinflammation at the microelectrode-tissue interface in intracortical implants,” the researchers reported:
    Multiple types of inflammasome sensor molecules (NLRP1, NLRP3, AIM2, and NLRC4) were upregulated following ME implant injury
    NLRP1 and NLRP3, which were upregulated by 48 hours and remained distinctly elevated at 4 weeks, play a vital role in activation of inflammasome complexes during acute and sub-chronic periods following ME-induced injury
    In addition to sensor molecules, ASC and Caspase-1 were persistently elevated throughout the implant duration
    Sustained presence of gasdermin D provides evidence of elevated pyroptosis (“cell death”) occurring at the injury site, which coincided with a decrease in neuronal density
    “Deep brain stimulation is an important therapeutic option to help maintain quality of life in patients with movement disorders whose symptoms are not effectively controlled by medication,” stated Dr. Abhishek Prasad, Associate Professor, the Department of Biomedical Engineering at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine.
  • “Our results not only demonstrate that continuous activation of inflammasomes contribute to neuroinflammation at the ME-tissue interface, but also reveal the therapeutic potential of targeting inflammasomes to attenuate the foreign body response to cortical implants.”
    “The research published in Biomaterials provides additional support for the therapeutic potential of ZyVersa’s proprietary monoclonal antibody inflammasome ASC inhibitor, IC 100, in neurological injury and disease,” indicated Stephen C. Glover, ZyVersa’s Co-founder, Chairman, CEO and President.
  • “Preclinical studies have demonstrated reduced inflammatory activity and/or improved outcomes in two different models of brain injury, spinal cord injury, age-related inflammation Alzheimer’s disease, and multiple sclerosis.”
