Jupiter Neurosciences, Inc. Announces Journal of Alzheimer's Disease Publication Highlighting use of JOTROL™
Pre-clinical proof-of-concept demonstrated in a disease model
JUPITER, Fla. and BOSTON, June 14, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Jupiter Neurosciences, Inc. ("Jupiter" or the "Company"),
today announced the publication in the Journal of Alzheimer's Disease
of "JOTROL™, a Novel Formulation of Resveratrol, Shows Beneficial
Effects in the 3xTg-AD Mouse Model." This research, performed in
collaboration with the University of Miami
Miller School of Medicine demonstrated that a novel, oral formulation of
resveratrol, JOTROL™, was able to deliver therapeutically viable levels
of resveratrol in a disease mouse model of Alzheimer's disease (AD).
The results showed that JOTROL™ significantly increased bioavailability
over non-formulated resveratrol and that treatment resulted in
AD-related gene expression changes, as well as changes in inflammatory
gene and cytokine levels. JOTROL™ may be effective as a prophylaxis
and/or treatment for AD through increased expression and/or activation
of neuroprotective genes, suppression of pro-inflammatory genes, and
regulation of central and peripheral cytokine levels. "This study
demonstrated the much-improved bioavailability and activity of JOTROL™
over unformulated resveratrol in an animal model of Alzheimer's disease
with extended drug exposure, stated lead author Professor Claes Wahlestedt, Associate Dean for Therapeutic Innovation, Department of Psychiatry & Behavioral Health at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine."
About JOTROL™
JOTROL™, the Company's unique and
patented platform product, is an enhanced resveratrol formulation
designed to safely deliver therapeutically relevant levels of
resveratrol. In a Phase I first-in-man trial, JOTROL™ was administered
in ascending doses to assess safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics.
JOTROL™ was determined to be safe and well tolerated at all dose levels
administered and achieved blood plasma target levels 8-10-fold higher
than naïve resveratrol administered in historical clinical trials. The
study was financed by a grant from the National Institute on Aging
(NIA), entitled Safety and Pharmacokinetics of JOTROL for Alzheimer's
Disease. Resveratrol can cross the blood-brain barrier and has
demonstrated positive effects on oxidative stress, inflammation, and
mitochondrial function in Friedreich's ataxia (FA) and Alzheimer's
disease (AD) patients.
