摘要
Amyloid beta (A beta) aggregation plays an essential role in promoting the progression of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Therefore, the inhibition of A beta aggregation is a potential therapeutic approach for AD. Herein, twenty-seven biflavonoids with different inter-flavonyl linkages and methoxy substitution patterns were isolated from several plants, and their A beta(40) aggregation inhibitory activity was evaluated by the thioflavin-T fluorescence assay. Amentoflavone (1) and its monomethoxy derivatives (2, 3, and 5) exhibited the most potent inhibitory activity, with IC50 values of approximately 5 mu M. It was clarified that increasing the number of methoxy substituents on the biflavonoid structures attenuated the inhibitory activity. Moreover, the linkage and the methoxy substitution pattern had a marked influence on the inhibitory activity. Our investigation strongly supports that biflavonoids can be considered a new type of anti-Alzheimer agents that may be successfully developed for AD patients.
