Abstract
This study focuses on the design, synthesis, and evaluation of a series of salidroside derivatives (pOBZ-1~pOBZ-11) for their potential as inhibitors of monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B) and amyloid beta (Aβ42) aggregation, and neuroprotective agents. Among the synthesized derivatives, pOBZ-1 and pOBZ-2 exhibited superior MAO-B inhibitory activity compared to salidroside, with notable selectivity over MAO-A. These compounds demonstrated linear competitive inhibition. Additionally, the derivatives effectively inhibited Aβ42 aggregation and protected SH-SY5Y cells from Aβ42 and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-induced neurotoxicity. The findings suggest that pOBZ-2, in particular, holds promise as a therapeutic candidate for Alzheimer’s disease.

期刊介绍:
Medicinal Chemistry Research (MCRE) publishes papers on a wide range of topics, favoring research with significant, new, and up-to-date information. Although the journal has a demanding peer review process, MCRE still boasts rapid publication, due in part, to the length of the submissions. The journal publishes significant research on various topics, many of which emphasize the structure-activity relationships of molecular biology.
