Equity Interest - Non-publicly traded entity ( e.g., stock, stock option, or other ownership interest)

Dr. Kelleher is a co-founder of and owns equity in iNeuro Therapeutics, a company pursuing drug screening and development efforts to identify positive modulators or activators of Presenilin-1. The research project studies the role of role of Presenilin-1 mutations in Alzheimer’s Disease. The results of the research could potentially enhance interest in the types of compounds being screened by the company. The institution determined that, given the magnitude of the financial interest, Dr. Kelleher’s financial interest could directly and significantly affect the design, conduct, or reporting of the research.

Listed Research Project
Mechanisms of brain phenotypes caused by FAD-linked Presenilin-1 Mutations

Project Narrative Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common neurodegenerative disorder, and mutations in the Presenilin genes are the most common cause of inherited or familial AD (FAD). Results from our recent generation and multidisciplinary analysis of novel mouse models point to an important role for loss of Presenilin function in FAD pathogenesis. In this application, we propose to investigate the mechanisms by which Presenilin mutations impair synaptic function, learning and memory, and neuronal survival in the adult brain. Completion of these studies will advance efforts to understand FAD pathogenesis and devise effective therapies.

Notes: When a more specific filing date is not available for an individual financial disclosure or conflict of interest form, we use the year the form was filed. If the year was not disclosed, we report the range of years covered by our public records requests. In a few cases, a start date was provided instead of a filing date. In those cases, we use the start date instead.

Fewer than 10% of records from the University of Florida and fewer than 1% of records from the University of Texas system were removed because they did not contain enough information.

ProPublica obtained additional financial disclosures and conflict of interest forms that we have not yet digitized and added to the database. You can download those disclosures in the ProPublica Data Store.
