Bioassay studies are one of the most important tools in new drug discovery and development as they identify whether a compound or, in Akome’s research scenarios, bioactive compounds, have the desired effect on targeted disease pathways.
Neuro-Zone’s bioassay studies have, to date, focused on confirming the relationship between the plant bioactives covered in Akome’s United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) patent submissions, (namely AKO001, AKO002, AKO003 and AKO004 (see Company press releases dated
Neuro-Zone’s bioassay studies have allowed researchers to assess the effect of Akome’s plant bioactives on various biological targets associated with the neurological indications in question. Positive results emerging from the bioassay studies indicate that Akome’s plant bioactives possess the desired biological effects against Alzheimer’s Disease neuropathological mechanisms, as well as against other neuroinflammatory processes.
Using these positive results Akome and Neuro-Zone are actively mapping out the next stages in the Company’s drug development process.
“The positive results from these studies have demonstrated that Akome is making significant steps towards developing groundbreaking drug formulations that can be used to treat neurological diseases. This is great news for the tens of millions of people who are affected by Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, Depression and Stroke, across the globe,” stated
