Abstract
The multifaceted nature of the neurodegenerative diseases, as Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Parkinson's disease (PD) with several interconnected etiologies, and the absence of effective drugs, led herein to the development and study of a series of multi-target directed ligands (MTDLs). The developed RIV-IND hybrids, derived from the conjugation of an approved anti-AD drug, rivastigmine (RIV), with melatonin analogues, namely indole (IND) derivatives, revealed multifunctional properties, by associating the cholinesterase inhibition of the RIV drug with antioxidant activity, biometal (Cu(II), Zn(II), Fe(III)) chelation properties, inhibition of amyloid-β (Aβ) aggregation (self- and Cu-induced) and of monoamine oxidases (MAOs), as well as neuroprotection capacity in cell models of AD and PD. In particular, two hybrids with hydroxyl-substituted indoles (5a2 and 5a3) could be promising multifunctional compounds that inspire further development of novel anti-neurodegenerative drugs.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Inorganic Biochemistry is an established international forum for research in all aspects of Biological Inorganic Chemistry. Original papers of a high scientific level are published in the form of Articles (full length papers), Short Communications, Focused Reviews and Bioinorganic Methods. Topics include: the chemistry, structure and function of metalloenzymes; the interaction of inorganic ions and molecules with proteins and nucleic acids; the synthesis and properties of coordination complexes of biological interest including both structural and functional model systems; the function of metal- containing systems in the regulation of gene expression; the role of metals in medicine; the application of spectroscopic methods to determine the structure of metallobiomolecules; the preparation and characterization of metal-based biomaterials; and related systems. The emphasis of the Journal is on the structure and mechanism of action of metallobiomolecules.
