2-aminoethylbenzofurans constitute a new class of H(3) antagonists that are more rotationally constrained than most previously reported H(3) antagonists. They retain high potency at human and rat receptors, with efficient CNS penetration observed in 35. The SAR of the basic amine moiety was compared in three different series of analogues. The greatest potency was found in analogues bearing a 2-methylpyrrolidine, a 2,5-dimethylpyrrolidine, or a 2,6-dimethylpiperidine.

Background: Alzheimer disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that is accountable for the leading case of dementia in elder people. Before, only symptomatic treatments are available for AD. Since 2021, two anti-amyloid antibodies aducanumab and lecanemab have been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFBackground: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common cause of age-related dementia, and the presence of amyloid-β (Aβ) plaques and tau-containing neurofibrillary tangles is associated with the neurodegeneration and cognitive impairment in this incurable disease. Growing evidence shows that epigenetic dysregulation through histone deacetylases (HDACs) plays a critical role in synaptic dysfunction and memory loss in AD, and HDACs have been highlighted as a novel class of anti-Alzheimer targets. Moreover, restoring Wnt/β-catenin signaling, which is greatly suppressed in AD brains, is a promising therapeutic strategy for AD.

Alzheimers Dement
December 2024
Sanford burnham prebys medical discovery institute, San Diego, CA, USA.
Background: A pathological hallmark of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the accumulation of amyloid-beta peptide (Aß). Potential treatments targeting Aß production such as γ-secretase inhibitors have had limited success. A promising alternative approach involves addressing early synaptic dysfunction by modulating molecules like striatal-enriched protein tyrosine phosphatase (STEP), whose levels and activity are upregulated by Aß.
