Tokyo, Japan, Feb 23, 2006 - (JCN) - Kyowa Hakko Kogyo announced on February 22 that it has concluded a licensing agreement with UK company Britannia Pharmaceuticals for a self-injectable formulation of apomorphine. Patients were randomized to commence either sildenafil or apomorphine treatment. These investigators administered two proteasomal inhibitors (epoxomicin and PSI) to rats over a 14-day period and then observed a progressive deterioration in motor function over a 2-week period, which improved after administration of the dopamine agonist apomorphine. |
