CA 2616960

The invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions for the treatment of neurodegenerative disorders, comprising an effective quantity of a tungsten compound (VI), preferably a tungstate salt and more preferably sodium tungstate (Na2WO4). The inventive pharmaceutical compositions can be used for the prophylactic and/or therapeutic treatment of neurodegenerative disorders in mammals, including humans, and, in particular, for the prophylactic and/or therapeutic treatment of Alzheimer's disease and schizophrenia. The effect of sodium tungstate dihydrate in tau phosphorylation was assessed using a model of insulin-resistant mice and a Type 1 diabetes model. The therapeutic treatment of tauopathies that derive from said invention affords numerous advantages: GSK3 inhibition, specificity owing to a reduction in abnormal tau hyperphosphorylation caused by a specific neural protein, efficacy, absence of toxicity, and low price.

L'invention concerne des compositions pharmaceutiques contenant une quantité efficace d'un composé de tungstène (VI), de préférence un sel de tungstate, et plus préférablement, du tungstate sodique (Na2WO4), utilisées dans le traitement prophylactique et/ou thérapeutique des troubles neurodégénératifs chez les mammifères, y compris les humains, en particulier dans le traitement prophylactique et/ou thérapeutique de la maladie d'Alzheimer ou de la schizophrénie. L'effet du tungstate sodique dihydrate dans la phosphorylation de tau dans un modèle de rats résistants à l'insuline et dans un modèle de diabète de type 1 a été évalué. Le traitement thérapeutique des taupathies de l'invention présente divers avantages: l'inhibition de GSK3; sa spécificité puisqu'il réduit l'hyperphosphorylation anormale de tau, une protéine neurale spécifique; l'absence de toxicité; et un coût réduit.
