- Design, synthesis and evaluation of scutellarein-O-acetamidoalkylbenzylamines as potential multifunctional agents for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease
-
A series of scutellarein-O-acetamidoalkylbenzylamines derivatives were designed based on a multitarget-directed ligands strategy for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease. Among these compounds, compound T-22 demonstrated excellent acetylcholinesterase inhibitory, moderate inhibitory effects on self-induced Aβ1-42 aggregation, Cu2+-induced Aβ1-42 aggregation, human AChE-induced Aβ1-40 aggregation and disassembled Cu2+-induced aggregation of the well-structured Aβ1-42 fibrils, and also acted as potential antioxidant and biometals chelator. Both kinetic analysis of AChE inhibition and molecular modeling study suggested that T-22 interacted with both the catalytic active site and peripheral anionic site of AChE. Moreover, compound T-22 showed a good neuroprotective effect against H2O2-induced PC12?cell injury and low toxicity in SH-SY5Y cells. Furthermore, the step-down passive avoidance test indicated T-22 significantly reversed scopolamine-induced memory deficit in mice. Taken together, the data showed that T-22 was an interesting multifunctional lead compound worthy of further study for AD.

- Pterostilbene-O-acetamidoalkylbenzylamines derivatives as novel dual inhibitors of cholinesterase with anti-β-amyloid aggregation and antioxidant properties for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease
-
A series of pterostilbene-O-acetamidoalkylbenzylamines were designed, synthesized and evaluated as dual inhibitors of AChE and BuChE. To further explore the multifunctional properties of the new derivatives, their antioxidant activities and inhibitory effects on self-induced Aβ1-42 aggregation and HuAChE-induced Aβ1-40 aggregation were also tested. The results showed that most of these compounds could effectively inhibit AChE and BuChE. Particularly, compound 21d exhibited the best AChE inhibitory activity (IC50 = 0.06 μM) and good inhibition of BuChE (IC50 = 28.04 μM). Both the inhibition kinetic analysis and molecular modeling study revealed that these compounds showed mixed-type inhibition, binding simultaneously to the CAS and PAS of AChE. In addition to cholinesterase inhibitory activities, these compounds showed different levels of antioxidant activity. However, the inhibitory activities against self-induced and HuAChE-induced Aβ aggregation of these new derivatives were unsatisfied. Taking into account the results of the biological evaluation, further modifications will be designed in order to increase the potency on the different targets. The results displayed in this Letter can be a new starting point for further development of multifunctional agents for Alzheimer's disease.
