Abstract

The complex nature of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) has prompted the design of Multi-Target-Directed Ligands (MTDL) able to bind to diverse biochemical targets involved in the progress and development of the disease. In this context, we have designed a number of MTD propargylamines showing antioxidant, anti-betaamyloid, anti-inflammatory, as well as cholinesterase and monoamine oxidase inhibition capacities. Here, we describe these properties in the MTDL ASS234, our lead-compound ready to enter in pre-clinical studies for AD, as a new multipotent, permeable cholinesterase/monoamine oxidase inhibitor, able to inhibit Aβ- aggregation, possessing antioxidant and neuroprotective properties.
