WASHINGTON (dpa-AFX) - Seelos Therapeutics, Inc. (SEEL) announced in vivo data showing that a single dose of SLS-004 downregulated the production of alpha-synuclein. This reduction of ?-synuclein by SLS-004 in an established ?-synuclein overexpressing animal model of Parkinson's disease resulted in substantial increase and recovery of degeneration in tyrosine hydroxylase positive or TH+ dopaminergic neurons that are known to degenerate in patients with Parkinson's disease.
'Increasing the recovery of TH+ dopaminergic neurons after a single administration of SLS-004 is a significant achievement, and this in vivo study validates and extends our prior findings,' said Raj Mehra, CEO of Seelos.
