β amyloid (1 9)

This is an N-terminal fragment of beta amyloid. It consists of amino acid residues 1 to 9. Truncated beta amyloid peptide (10-40) still forms amyloid fibrils and shows fibril polymorphism.

6,9-Dichloro-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroacridine is a synthetic intermediate in the synthesis of tacrine-based acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitors.1It is also an intermediate in the synthesis of multifunctional tacrine hybrids that possess radical scavenging, amyloid-β aggregation inhibitory, and/or β-secretase 1 (BACE1) inhibitory activities in addition to their activity as AChE inhibitors.2,3 1.Recanatini, M., Cavalli, A., Belluti, F., et al.SAR of 9-amino-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroacridine-based acetylcholinesterase inhibitors: Synthesis, enzyme inhibitory activity, QSAR, and structure-based CoMFA of tacrine analoguesJ.

Donecopride is a partial agonist of the serotonin (5-HT) receptor subtype 5-HT4E(Ki= 8.5 nM) and an inhibitor of acetylcholinesterase (AChE; IC50= 16 nM).1It is selective for AChE over butyrylcholinesterase (BChE; IC50= 3,530 nM) but does bind to 5-HT2Band sigma-2 (σ2) receptors (Ki= 1.6 nM for both) in a panel of 42 neurotransmitter receptors and transporters. Donecopride induces release of soluble amyloid precursor protein-α (sAPP-α) in COS-7 cells transiently expressing 5-HT4with an EC50value of 11.3 nM. Oral administration of donecopride (1 mg/kg) reduces brain soluble and insoluble amyloid-β (1-42) levels and increases the time spent exploring the novel object in the novel object recognition (NOR) test in the 5XFAD transgenic mouse model of Alzheimer's disease. Donecopride (3 mg/kg, p.o.) prevents a reduction in spontaneous alternation behavior induced by intracerebroventricular administration of soluble Aβ42 (sAβ42) in the Y-maze in mice.2 1.Lecoutey, C., Hedou, D., Freret, T., et al.Design of donecopride, a dual serotonin subtype 4 receptor agonist/acetylcholinesterase inhibitor with potential interest for Alzheimer's disease treatmentProc.

AChE/BChE-IN-9 (Compound 7a) is a potent, orally active inhibitor of AChE and BChE, with IC50 values of 5.74 μM and 14.05 μM against hAChE and eqBChE, respectively. It also demonstrates effective antioxidant activity (IC50 = 57.35 μM), chelates iron, and modulates amyloid β 1-42 aggregation. Notably, AChE-IN-16 can cross the blood-brain barrier [1].

RI-OR2 is a retro-inverso peptide that acts as an amyloid-β (Aβ) oligomerization inhibitor. It binds to fixed β-Amyloid (1-42) monomers and fibrils, with an apparent Kd of 9-12 μM, and also serves as an inhibitor of Aβ(1-42) fibril extension.
