LIPOSOMES ACTIVE IN-VIVO ON NEURODEGENERATIVE DISEASES (IN PARTICULAR ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE)

摘要

New liposomes are described, comprising: (i) phosphatidic acid and/or cardiolipin; (ii) apolipoprotein E (ApoE) or derivatives thereof. The so modified liposomes, administered systemically, obtain a dramatic in-vivo reduction of the amyloid plaque in the central nervous system, allowing an effective treatment of neurodegenerative diseases, in particular Alzheimer's disease.
