METHODS OF METABOLIC REGULATION OF MITOCHONDRIA FOR TREATING NEURAL INJURY AND NEUROLOGICAL DISORDERS USING DSH INHIBITORS

摘要

Methods are disclosed for treating and/or preventing a neurological condition, such as neural injury or neurological disorder, in a subject through metabolic regulation of mitochondria using compounds that are natural metabolites, metabolite analogs, or derivatives of natural metabolites to modulate biochemical pathways comprising succinate and/or succinate dehydrogenase, thereby reducing microglial cell and/or astrocyte activation. Compounds and related formulations are also provided to modulate the biochemical pathways comprising succinate and/or succinate dehydrogenase for reducing or inhibiting microglial cell and/or astrocyte activation.
