Novel Small Molecules with Neuroprotective Potential in ALS and Related Neurodegenerative Diseases
This invention is a series of novel small molecule compounds developed at the University of Arizona that may be used in the treatment of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), particularly in treating the locomotor dysfunction associated with the disease. The compounds have a neuroprotective effect in that they prevent the aggregation of TDP-43, a neurotoxic...

Hazelnut 'McDonald'
Technology Description ‘McDonald’ inherits a gene from the cultivar ‘Gasaway’, which confers a high level of resistance to EFB; trees remain mostly free of EFB, with only a few cases of small cankers under high disease pressure having been observed to date. Additionally, ‘McDonald’ is resistant to bud mites (primarily...

Hazelnut 'Burgundy Lace'
Technology Description Leaves of ‘Burgundy Lace’ are dark reddish purple when young, are deeply incised and narrower than most European hazelnut cultivars, which have green leaves that are round-ovate and un-dissected. This results in a tree canopy that appears lacey and delicate. ‘Burgundy Lace’ inherited resistance from the...
