A method of oral delivery of phospholipid/inulin compositions comprising capsules, tablets, chewable wafers or powdered material in a liquid carrier in quantities effective for treating pain from overactive neurons. The phospholipid/inulin compositions were also shown to be effective in reducing depression and intestinal malfunctions including, but not limited to, diarrhea and constipation, and improving sleep pattern. The compositions further including effective amounts of caffeine also reduces fatigue and enhances alertness and focus.

The present disclosure generally relates to methods and formulations for treating central nervous system (CNS) disorders. The present disclosure involves intranasal delivery of at least one antioxidant compound, allowing for effective treatment of a central nervous system disorder such as traumatic brain injury or stroke.

In some aspects, the disclosure relates to compositions and methods useful for inhibiting SOD1 expression in cells (e.g., cells of a subject). In some embodiments, the disclosure describes isolated nucleic acids engineered to express an inhibitory nucleic acid targeting endogenous SOD1 and an mRNA encoding a hardened SOD1 protein. In some embodiments, compositions and methods described by the disclosure are useful for treating Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) in a subject.

The present disclosure relates to AAVs encoding a SOD1 targeting polynucleotide which may be used to treat amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and delivery methods for the treatment of spinal cord related disorders including ALS.

The present invention relates to AAVs encoding a SOD1 targeting polynucleotide which may be used to treat amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and/or canine degenerative myelopathy (DM).

The invention relates to inhibitory nucleic acids and rAAV-based compositions, methods and kits useful for treating Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis.

Described herein are compounds and methods for tethering proteins. For example, dimers of Protein X listed in Table 1 are described, where the dimers are formed by the covalent bonding of a cysteine on the first monomer to a cysteine on the second monomer via a cyclic disulfide linker. The covalently attached dimers exhibit increased stabilization and can be used to treat neurodegenerative diseases (such as, for example, Parkinson's Disease, ALS, Alzheimer's Disease, Huntington's Disease, Epilepsy, Frontotemporal Dementia, and/or DMD), cancer, autoimmune disease, and/or Celiac disease.

The invention relates to compositions and methods for the preparation, manufacture and therapeutic use of modulatory polynucleotides.

Described herein are compounds and methods for tethering proteins. For example, dimers of proteins, including SOD1 and DJ-1, are described, where the dimers are formed by the covalent bonding of a cysteine on the first monomer to a cysteine on the second monomer via a cyclic disulfide linker. The covalently attached dimers exhibit increased stabilization.

Disclosed herein are antisense compounds and methods for decreasing SOD-1 mRNA and protein expression. Such methods, compounds, and compositions are useful to treat, prevent, or ameliorate SOD-1 associated diseases, disorders, and conditions. Such SOD-1 associated diseases include amyotrophic sclerosis (ALS).
