摘要
Curcumin binds to the amyloid[3 peptide (A beta) and inhibits or modulates amyloid precursor protein (APP) metabolism. Therefore, curcumin-derived isoxazoles and pyrazoles were synthesized to minimize the metal chelation properties of curcumin. The decreased rotational freedom and absence of stereoisomers was predicted to enhance affinity toward A beta(42) aggregates. Accordingly, replacement of the 1,3-dicarbonyl moiety with isosteric heterocycles turned curcumin analogue isoxazoles and pyrazoles into potent ligands of fibrillar A beta(42) aggregates. Additionally, several compounds are potent inhibitors of tau protein aggregation and depolymerized tau protein aggregates at low micromolar concentrations.
