They include the altropane(tm) imaging agent, a small molecule being developed as a diagnostic for Parkinson's disease and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. The group owns the exclusive license for the use of troponin to treat a variety of angiogenic diseases. The group has acquired the rights for inosine and af-1, which are nerve growth factors, specifically promoting axon outgrowth in cns cells.
