IL-1β, IL-6, CCL2, CXCL1 and CXCL8) over 28 days compared to baseline to levels approximating those of healthy elderly controls, demonstrating reversal of NLRP3-mediated neuroinflammation.

Key Points: 
  • IL-1β, IL-6, CCL2, CXCL1 and CXCL8) over 28 days compared to baseline to levels approximating those of healthy elderly controls, demonstrating reversal of NLRP3-mediated neuroinflammation.
  • In addition, reductions in neurodegenerative markers were also observed following oral dosing of NT-0796, including NfL and soluble TREM (sTREM2).
  • The correlation between Parkinson’s disease and neuroinflammation is well-documented, with alpha-synuclein fibrils triggering microglial NLRP3 activation, leading to neuroinflammation and subsequent neurodegeneration.
  • This is the inaugural demonstration of an NLRP3 inhibitor’s potential to not only address Parkinson’s disease but also offer a broader impact on neurodegenerative diseases.
