Background:

LM22A-4 is a specific agonist of tyrosine kinase receptor B, used for neurological disease research.

LM22A-4 significantly up-regulates OPN and ALPase mRNA expression in a dose-dependent manner and OC mRNA level is significantly increased by 5 μM of LM22A-4. LM22A-4 significantly increases OPN, ALPase and OC mRNA expression in a time-dependent manner. LM22A-4 stimulated OPN and OC mRNA expression in HCEM cells cultured with mineralizing media[2].

LM22A-4 (10 mg/kg, i.p.) significantly reduces the degree of tissue injury and apoptosis (TUNEL staining and caspase-3 and Bcl-2 expression) compared with vehicle treated group. LM22A-4 also significantly ameliorates the recovery of limb function. LM22A-4 (10 mg/kg) treatment results in a significant increase in neuron number. LM22A-4 administration (10 mg/kg) significantly improves the neurological scores compared with those of the solvent-treated animals[1].
