neurons were discovered to bind to the sigma-2 receptor complex. Select development compounds displaced receptor-bound Aβ oligomers, rescued synapses, and restored cognitive function in transgenic hAPP Swe/Ldn mice. Our first-in-class orally administered small molecule investigational drug 7 (CT1812) has been advanced to Phase II clinical studies for Alzheimer’s disease.
开发了一种无偏的表型神经元测定法来测量可溶性 Aβ 寡聚体的突触毒性作用。筛选了一组通过条件提取制备的CNS类药物小分子。发现阻止和逆转神经元中 Aβ 寡聚体的突触毒性作用的化合物与 sigma-2 受体复合物结合。在转基因 hAPP Swe/Ldn 小鼠中选择开发化合物取代受体结合的 Aβ 寡聚体、拯救突触并恢复认知功能。我们一流的口服小分子研究药物7 ( CT1812 ) 已进入阿尔茨海默病的 II 期临床研究。
