Use of the Ketamine Metabolite (R,6R)-hydroxynorketamine in Depression

This technology includes the identification and use of a ketamine metabolite, (2R,6R)-2-amino-2-(2-chlorophenyl)-6-hydroxycyclohexanone (HNK), for the treatment of depression. Ketamine is an NMDA receptor antagonist that exerts a rapid and sustained antidepressant and anti-suicidal effect. However, even low doses of ketamine has addictive and psychomimetic...

Novel Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (MRS) Technique to Quantify Brain Metabolites

With respect to quantification of metabolites in the brain, conventional methods of magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) yield results that are highly variable and highly dependent on the sequence type being applied. This invention describes a novel MRS technique that involves preparing longitudinal steady states at different flip angles using trains...

Pyruvate Kinase M2 Activators for the Treatment of Cancer

This technology describes a series of small-molecule activators of the pyruvate kinase M2 isoform (PK-M2). Pyruvate kinase (PK) is a critical metabolic enzyme that catalyzes the last step of the glycolytic pathway. It exists in several isoforms with different patterns of tissue expression. One isoform, PK-M2, is expressed in cells with a high rate...
