RESUMEN
Analysis of the pharmacological activity of the original drug Prospekta in a rat model of focal cerebral ischemia revealed its nootropic effect: course treatment in the post-ischemic period led to recovery of the neurological status of animals at the peak of neurological deficit. Evaluation of the therapeutic potential of the drug in morphological and functional CNS disorders allowed us to conclude that it is advisable to carry out further studies of its biological activity at the preclinical stage (the results obtained in animals were successfully confirmed in a clinical trial of drug efficacy in the treatment of moderate cognitive disorders in the early recovery period after ischemic stroke). Studies of the nootropic activity in other pathologies of the nervous system are also promising.

Antibodies to 5100 proteins (anti-5100) in release-active form (RA anti-5100) are an active component of some domestic drugs(tenoten, tenoten for children, divaza, brizantin, kolofort and proproten-100). The authors present the results of preclinical and clinical trials (with detailed consideration of experimental data) which demonstrated a wide spectrum of specific pharmacological activity and safety as well as mechanisms of anti-5100 action.

Activities of monoamine oxidases A and B were examined on the models of presymptomatic and early symptomatic stages of Parkinson's disease developed in mice treated with MPTP, a specific neurotoxin affecting dopaminergic neurons. Activity of monoamine oxidases A, the key enzyme of dopamine degradation, is increased in neuronal somas during the symptomatic stage, and it is augmented in the axons during both stages. Neuronal activity of monoamine oxidases A is higher during the symptomatic stage than that during the presymptomatic stage, which can explain depletion of intercellular dopamine and appearance of motor disturbances. Activity of monoamine oxidase B in the striatum is reduced during the presymptomatic stage, but returns to the control level during the symptomatic stage. Variation in monoamine oxidase activity seems to reflect the compensatory mechanisms triggered in degrading nigrostriatal dopaminergic system.
