Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The objective of the present study is to design and synthesis of a compound aiming at the cure of Alzheimer’s disease based on the amyloid hypothesis that the aggregation of amyloid beta (Ab) in the brain is the main cause of Alzheimer’s disease. It is known that zinc released from synaptic termini accelerate the aggregation of Ab. It is also known that scyllo-inositol inhibit the Ab aggregation. Therefore, combination of zinc-binding compound and scyllo-inositol would suppress the Ab aggregation. The present study aimed at the synthesis of an artificial compound comprising zinc chelator and scyllo-inositol.
