Neuroprotective compounds

# Record card
35
Description

We have identified compounds that show a neuroprotective action in vivo, in models of neurodegenerative diseases (e.g. SMA, Parkinson, Alzheimer, Huntington) in the model organism C. elegans. These compounds consist of: mixtures of 22 natural extracts, 15 natural molecules and 11 synthetic molecules.

Oral hypoglycemic pharmaceutical preparation containing a metallic compound and plant extracts derived from waste biomass

# Record card
295
Description

Our proposal focuses on innovative formulations containing metallic complexes and plant extracts for diabetes treatment. The formulations were tested in vitro on human adipocyte cell models, showing a strong hypoglycemic effect due to the synergistic action of the two components. The plant extracts, derived from waste biomass of the agri-food industry, possess high antioxidant activity and interesting nutraceutical properties, due to their composition rich in polyphenols.
