Arundic acid (ONO-2506) is an astrocyte-modulating agent, which delays the expansion of cerebral infarcts by modulating the activation of astrocytes through inhibition of S-100β synthesis. Arundic acid (ONO-2506) has been developed as a therapeutic agent for stroke and Alzheimer’s disease[1][2][3].
