These pharmacophores include two hydrophobic binding sites and one hydrogen binding site. After a few years (2012), Pandeya modified Dimmock's concept by adding one more pharmacophoric feature as an electron donor in the previously suggested pharmacophoric arrangement of the anticonvulsant. As a result, numerous scientists designed anticonvulsant drugs based on Dimmock's and Pandeya's concept. In addition, marketed anticonvulsant preparation containing Riluzole, Phenobarbital, Progabide, Ralitoline, etc., also holds the suggested pharmacophores by Dimmock and Pandeya's pharmacophoric concept.

One of the important components of the CNS is the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), which bathes the brain and spinal cord. CSF has changing properties throughout life, including composition and volume imbalance. However, a specific age group that shows prevailing abnormality- corresponding behavior remains unclear. The objective of this article is to explore how such changes reflect on one's psychological as well as physical processing. Production of CSF could be affected by many factors, including its flow, absorption, volume, and composition. Prenatally, congenital malformations and infections hold the greatest risk of impacting the child's physical and mental growth. In adolescents, transmission of external substances like alcohol or drugs in the cerebrospinal fluid is known to impact severe mood changes that potentially result in suicide and depression. In the adult working population, the influence of stress levels on CSF composition causes anxiety and sleep disorders. Finally, the reduced production of CSF was found to be associated with memory deficits and Alzheimer's disease in the aging group. From the collected evidence, it can be observed that CSF played an important role in behavioral changes and may be associated with neurodegenerations. By linking the CSF abnormalities to the clinical symptoms at different stages of life, it may provide additional information in the diagnosis of diseases that are associated with neuropsychological changes.</p>","PeriodicalId":10456,"journal":{"name":"CNS & neurological disorders drug targets","volume":"22 3","pages":"431-440"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9519347","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Patients in both cases are increasing day by day. They are considered two independent diseases, but recent evidence suggests that they have a lot in common. OBJECTIVE In this review we focused on the connection between Alzheimer's disease and diabetes and highlighted the importance of antidiabetic drugs against Alzheimer's disease. METHODS Common pathways such as obesity, vascular diseases, oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, mutation of ApoE4 gene, and Sirtuin gene were found to manipulate both diseases. Antidiabetic drugs are found to have promising effects on Alzheimer's disease, acting by reducing insulin resistance, neuronal protection, and reducing amyloid-beta plaques. Some anti-diabetic drugs have shown promising results in vivo and in vitro studies. RESULTS No review present focuses on the structural features of the antidiabetic molecules against Alzheimer's disease, their crosslinking pathophysiology, the role of natural bioactive molecules, in silico advancements followed by preclinical and clinical studies, and current advancements. Hence, we concentrated on the factors mentioned in the objectives.
