Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Hydroxylated Monocarbonyl Curcumin Derivatives as Potential Inducers of Neprilysin Activity

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2021
Background: Alzheimer’s disease (AD) involves impairment of Aβ clearance. Neprilysin (NEP) is the most efficient Aβ peptidase. Enhancement of the activity or expression of NEP may provide a prominent therapeutic strategy against AD.

Intranasal neprilysin rapidly eliminates amyloid-beta plaques, but causes plaque compensations: the explanation why the amyloid-beta cascade may fail?

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2022
Neurodegenerative brain disorders are a major burden in our society, such as Alzheimer´s disease. In order to repair or prevent such diseases, drugs are designed which enter the brain, but the blood-brain barrier limits their entry and the search for ...
