PubMed Abstract:
Butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) is a promising drug target for alleviating the symptoms of canine cognitive dysfunction (CCD) and Alzheimer's disease (AD). We have recently developed lead compound 2 , a racemic, nanomolar BChE inhibitor with procognitive effects in mice with scopolamine-induced AD-like symptoms and dogs suffering from CCD. To overcome its modest brain exposure, we developed compound ( R )-(-)-3 , a more potent BChE inhibitor with a 7-fold higher in vivo brain exposure. It has procognitive effects in mice with scopolamine-induced AD-like symptoms and, superior to compound 2 , also in mice with Aβ _1-42-induced AD-like symptoms. Compound ( R )-(-)-3 produces no cholinergic adverse effects or motor deficits and has no acute toxic effects in mice. This makes sulfonamide ( R )-(-)-3 an optimized lead compound for alleviating the symptoms of AD.
