Research Published in European Journal of Pharmacology Shows that Star Scientific's Anatabine Suppresses Brain Inflammation in Animal Model of Alzheimer's Disease and in Blood
Date:11/27/2012

GLEN ALLEN, Va., Nov. 27, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Star Scientific, Inc. (NASDAQ: STSI) today announces that new anatabine research has been accepted by and published online in the European Journal of Pharmacology. In a series of studies, researchers at the Roskamp Institute demonstrated that anatabine can suppress brain inflammation in animal models of Alzheimer's disease, inflammation in the blood in mice, and inflammation induced in human blood once removed from the body.  This peer-reviewed data supporting the view that anatabine has widespread anti-inflammatory properties was published in a paper, titled, "Anti-inflammatory Activity of Anatabine Via Inhibition of STAT3 Phosphorylation". The anatabine used in these studies is made under Star Scientific's patented process and is the main ingredient in its Anatabloc® dietary supplement.

In one study, the highly inflammatory molecule LPS, which is released from bacteria during human infections, was injected into mice.  Subsequently, there were expected large increases in inflammatory molecules in the blood, spleen, and kidney; however, when co-treated with anatabine there were statistically significant large decreases in these inflammatory molecules in the blood, spleen, and kidney. The spleen, in particular, showed marked suppression of inflammatory molecule release during co-treatment with anatabine.

In addition, the Roskamp Institute team showed that in a mouse model of Alzheimer's disease, supplementation with anatabine resulted in a significant suppression of inflammatory markers, especially a marker called TNF-Alpha, which is known to be raised in Alzheimer's disease. This finding complements a previous study by the Roskamp Institute showing reduction
