PROTECTED CARBOXYLIC ACID-BASED METABOLITES FOR THE TREATMENT OF MITOCHONDRIA-RELATED DISEASES
The present invention provides novel cell-permeable carboxylic acid-based metabolites and cell permeable precursors thereof aimed at increasing ATP-production in mitochondria and thus, for use in medicine. The main part of ATP produced and utilized in the eukaryotic cell originates from mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation, a process to which high-energy electrons are provided by the Kreb's cycle. Not all Kreb's cycle intermediates are readily permeable to the cellular membrane, one of them being malonate. The provision of the novel cell permeable carboxylic acid- based metabolites is envisaged to allow passage over the cellular membrane and thus the cell permeable metabolite can be used to enhance mitochondrial ATP-output.

SUCCINATE PRODRUGS FOR USE IN THE TREATMENT OF LACTIC ACIDOSIS OR DRUG-INDUCED SIDE-EFFECTS DUE TO COMPLEX I-RELATED IMPAIRMENT OF MITOCHONDRIAL OXIDATIVE PHOSPHORYLATION
A novel method useful in drug screening. The method is useful for testing effects of substances on the mitochondria, notably toxic or beneficial effects of drug substances or candidate drug substances. The method is based on measurement in live human mitochondria ex vivo, but in a setting as near the in vivo situation as possible. The method is also useful for testing substances impact on the mitochondrial respiration. The method can be used to i) screening and selection of early or late stage drug candidates in cells derived from blood from healthy individuals or in so-called buffy coat, which is a concentrated solution of platelets and white blood cells, ii) testing a patient's sensitivity to a known mitochondrial toxicant, iii) analysing mitochondrial drug toxicity in clinical trials, and/or iv) analysing beneficial effects of drugs intended to improve mitochondrial function
