Fighting fire with fire: The immune system might be key in our fight against Alzheimer's disease

Pieter Dujardin et al.

Summary: The ultimate cause of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is still unknown, but the immune system plays a key role in its pathogenesis. Immunotherapy holds promise as a novel therapy for treating AD, but further research is needed to understand the interaction between AD and the different parts of our immune system.

Challenges and hopes for Alzheimer's disease

Suren A. Tatulian

Summary: Recent drug development efforts targeting Alzheimer's disease (AD) have failed to produce effective disease-modifying agents. New molecular targets, biomarkers, and diagnostic techniques, as well as alternative nonpharmacological approaches, are needed for early detection and treatment of AD. This article analyzes the successes and debacles of pharmaceutical endeavors and highlights new technologies that may lead to improved diagnosis and treatment of AD.

Design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of carbamate derivatives of N-salicyloyl tryptamine as multifunctional agents for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease

Dan Liu et al.

Summary: This study designed and evaluated a series of carbamate derivatives as multifunctional therapeutic agents for Alzheimer's disease. Compound 1g exhibited dual inhibitory activity against AChE and BChE, reduced pro-inflammatory cytokine levels, increased anti-inflammatory cytokine levels, and inhibited the aggregation of A beta(1-42). It showed potential as a multi-functional therapeutic agent for further investigation in AD treatment.

Photoswitchable Pseudoirreversible Butyrylcholinesterase Inhibitors Allow Optical Control of Inhibition in Vitro and Enable Restoration of Cognition in an Alzheimer's Disease Mouse Model upon Irradiation

Matthias Scheiner et al.

Summary: Selective and pseudoirreversible photoswitchable BChE inhibitors were synthesized to investigate their biological functions and the mechanisms by which they affect Alzheimer's disease. One of the compounds showed significant differences in activity both in vitro and in vivo, and exhibited complete recovery in a murine cognition-deficit AD model.

From tryptophan-based amides to tertiary amines: Optimization of a butyrylcholinesterase inhibitor series

Anze Meden et al.

Summary: The lead optimization of a series of tryptophan-based nanomolar BChE inhibitors resulted in highly potent, achiral, sp(3)-rich tertiary amines with better synthetic accessibility and high selectivity. Introduction of a carbamate warhead allowed conversion to pseudoirreversible inhibitors that covalently bound to BChE. The discovery of a novel leaving group chemotype and the structural analysis provided valuable insights for future optimization of this series.

Carbamate-based N-Substituted tryptamine derivatives as novel pleiotropic molecules for Alzheimer?s disease

Honghua Zhang et al.

Summary: A series of novel carbamate-based N-substituted tryptamine derivatives were designed and synthesized with both cholinesterase inhibition and neuroprotective effects. Among them, compound 6H6 exhibited excellent BChE-selective inhibitory activity, neuroprotection, antioxidation, and anti-neuroinflammation efficacy with confirmed safety. Compound 6H6 showed favorable pharmacokinetic properties and blood-brain barrier permeability in vivo and significantly improved behavioral changes and memory impairment induced by scop, suggesting its great potential in treating Alzheimer's disease.

Apoptotic Pathways and Alzheimer's Disease: Probing Therapeutic Potential

Vivek Kumar Sharma et al.

Summary: Apoptosis is a crucial biochemical process that regulates cell survival and disease progression, particularly in neurodegenerative disorders like Alzheimer's disease. Dysregulated apoptosis can lead to neuronal loss and is a key factor in the pathological progression of the disease. Identifying potential targets related to apoptosis may be valuable in developing therapeutics for Alzheimer's disease.
