An alkyl ether derivative represented by the formula:
wherein R1, R2, R3, R4, m and n are as defined in the specification, or salts thereof exhibits synergistically improved anti-hypoxic activity when combined with a compound having an acetylcholine esterase inhibitory activity. Therefore, the combination according to the present invention is useful as a method for improving cerebral function. Further, a pharmaceutical composition containing the compound relating to the combination according to the present invention is useful for treatment and prevention of dysfunction of cerebral acetylcholine neurons in the sequelae of cerebrovascular dementia, senile dementia, Alzheimer's disease and ischemic cerebral lesion and in the cerebral apoplexy or the memory impairment caused by selective neuronal death.
一种由式表示的烷基醚衍生物:
其中 R1、R2、R3、R4、m 和 n 如说明书中所定义,或其盐类与具有乙酰胆碱酯酶抑制活性的化合物结合使用时,可协同提高抗缺氧活性。因此,根据本发明的组合物可用作改善脑功能的方法。此外,含有与根据本发明的组合物有关的化合物的药物组合物可用于治疗和预防脑血管性痴呆、老年性痴呆、阿尔茨海默病和缺血性脑损伤后遗症中的脑乙酰胆碱神经元功能障碍,以及由选择性神经元死亡引起的脑中风或记忆障碍。
