The invention is directed to methods of inhibiting the rate at which superoxide dismutse-1 (SOD) aggregates using compounds that stabilize SOD dimers. The methods are useful in the study and therapy of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. The invention also includes assays that can be used to identify compounds that stabilize dimers and SOD molecules that have been modified for use in these assays.
本发明涉及使用稳定SOD二聚体的化合物来抑制超氧化物歧化酶-1(SOD)聚集的速率的方法。该方法在进行肌萎缩侧索硬化的研究和治疗中非常有用。本发明还包括可用于识别稳定二聚体化合物和已经改性用于这些测定的SOD分子的测定方法。
