A system for the physical manipulation of free magnetic rotors in a circulatory system using a remotely placed magnetic field-generating stator is provided. In one embodiment, the invention relates to the control of magnetic particles in a fluid medium using permanent magnet-based or electromagnetic field-generating stator sources. Such a system can be useful for increasing the diffusion of therapeutic agents in a fluid medium, such as a human circulatory system, which can result in substantial clearance of fluid obstructions, such as vascular occlusions, in a circulatory system resulting in increased blood flow. Examples of vascular occlusions targeted by the system include, but are not limited to, atherosclerotic plaques, including fibrous caps, fatty buildup, coronary occlusions, arterial stenosis, restenosis, vein thrombi, arterial thrombi, cerebral thrombi, embolisms, hemorrhages, other blood clots, and very small vessels. |

The present disclosure provides a method for treating stroke by administering to a subject an anticoagulant, e.g., recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rTPA), and a protein kinase C (PKC) activator followed by adminstration of at least one PKC activator for a duration of treatment. The methods disclosed herein may limit the size of infarction and/or reduce mortality, the disruption of the blood-brain barrier, and/or the hemorrhagic damage due to ischemic stroke compared with rTPA administration alone; and may also extend the therapeutic time window for administering rTPA after a stroke. Also disclosed are kits comprising rTPA and a PKC activator for treating stroke. |

Disclosed herein are methods of treatment for an intraocular pressure (IOP)-associated condition in a subject, that include administering to the subject an effective amount of a tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) therapeutic agent. In one embodiment, the IOP-associated condition is glaucoma. The administration of a tPA therapeutic agent can be an extended administration intended to cause a reduction in IOP in the subject for a period of at least one day to a year or more, relative to IOP levels in the subject prior to administration of the tPA therapeutic agent. The tPA therapeutic agent can be, for example, tPA, a tPA derivative, a small molecule direct or indirect tPA agonist, or a gene therapy vector. |
