A Brain-Targeted Orally Available ROCK2 Inhibitor Benefits Mild and Aggressive Cavernous Angioma Disease
AbstractCavernous angioma (CA) is a vascular pathology caused by loss of function in one of the 3 CA genes (CCM1,CCM2, andCCM3) that result in rho kinase (ROCK) activation. We investigated a novel ROCK2 selective inhibitor for the ability to reduce brain lesion formation, growth, and maturation. We used genetic methods to explore the use of a ROCK2-selective kinase inhibitor to reduce growth and hemorrhage of CAs. The role of ROCK2 in CA was investigated by crossingRock1 orRock2 hemizygous mice withCcm1 orCcm3 hemizygous mice, and we found reduced lesions in theRock2 hemizygous mice. A ROCK2-selective inhibitor, BA-1049 wa...
