AurimMed’s Announcements

  • October, 2016 Patent offices of Singapore and South Korea issued patent for AurimMed CNS-active compounds
  • December, 2015 The United States Patent and Trademark Office issued patent for AurimMed CNS-active compounds
  • November, 2015 The Mexican Patent Office issued Mexico patent for AurimMed CNS-active compounds
  • October, 2015 AurimMed presented its Parkinson and SMA results at Society for Neuroscience (Chicago, IL)
  • August, 2015 The in vivo test results suggest that oral treatment of AMP-X-0079 for two weeks significantly reduced the MPTP-induced abnormal involuntary hindlimb clasping and improved the grooming behavior and motor coordination in MPTP-lesioned mice. The immunohistochemical analyses suggested that oral AMP-X-0079 treatment for two weeks can effectively induce recovery effect from MPTP-induced lesion in the midbrain and the striatum
