Ashley I. Bush, M.D., Ph.D., Joins Adeona’s (AEN) Scientific Advisory Board
ANN ARBOR, Mich., March 24, 2011 /PRNewswire/ — Adeona Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NYSE Amex: AEN), a developer of innovative medicines for serious central nervous system diseases, announced today that Ashley I. Bush, M.D., Ph.D., has joined the Company’s Scientific Advisory Board.
Dr. Bush is a National Health and Medical Research Council Australia Fellow and Head of the Oxidation Disorders Laboratory for the Mental Health Research Institute, University of Melbourne. He has been published in the journal, Science, and has been featured in a front page article in The Wall Street Journal. Dr. Bush theorizes that the buildup of insoluble protein, called amyloid, within the brain in Alzheimer’s disease is caused by an imbalance in the import and export of the vital trace metals, such as copper, zinc and iron.
“Given my research in the area, I believe Adeona’s product candidate for the dietary management of Alzheimer’s disease, reaZin™, shows significant potential,” said Ashley I. Bush, M.D., Ph.D. “I look forward to advising Adeona as they move their promising zinc-based product candidate through development for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease.”
“We are very pleased to welcome Dr. Bush to our Scientific Advisory Board. He is a respected expert in the research and development of new treatments for Alzheimer’s disease based on the regulation of particular biometals,” stated James S. Kuo, M.D., M.B.A., Adeona’s Chairman and CEO. “We look forward to Dr. Bush’s valuable advisory role in advancing our development and product commercialization plans in Alzheimer’s.”
