Background: Previously, we demonstrated therapeutic benefits following intraperitoneal delivery of the TGR5 agonist HY209 in 5xFAD, a transgenic mouse model of Alzheimer's Disease (AD). Given the desirability of a more acceptable administration route for prolonged AD treatment, we assessed the efficacy of HY209 via oral delivery. This study aims to elucidate the therapeutic potential of NuCerin, an oral formulation of HY209, in the aforementioned AD model, while simultaneously identifying potential blood biomarkers indicative of NuCerin's therapeutic action.
