Leteprinim (Neotrofin, AIT-082) is a hypoxanthine derivative drug with neuroprotective and nootropic effects.[1][2][3] It stimulates release of nerve growth factors and enhances survival of neurons in the brain,[4][5][6][7][8] and is under development as a potential treatment for neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease and stroke.[9][10]
