| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) with oxicam structure have been reported to show neuroprotection via a novel mechanism which is to maintain cell-survival Akt signal in our research. Meloxicam, one of the oxicams, showed neuroprotection in a parkinsonian animal model. However, other oxicams had been investigated regarding antiparkinsonian effects. We examined other oxicams in the animal model. No drugｓ except meloxicam show neuroprotection. We obtained some new findings in relation to the mechanism of meloxicam for neuroprotection. Meloxicam is expected as a novel antiparkinsonian drug with disease-modifying effect.
