One of the major problems of the current therapy of brain diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease is the distribution of drugs to the central nervous system (CNS). Difficulties in traversing the blood–brain barrier (BBB) often impair the efficacy of valuable drugs. Using the ascorbic acid–drug conjugate concept, we have succeeded in developing a thiazolamide conjugate that shows an improved pharmacokinetic profile compared to the parent thiazolamide previously reported.
目前治疗阿尔茨海默病等脑部疾病的主要问题之一是如何将药物分配到中枢神经系统(CNS)。难以穿越血脑屏障(BBB)往往会影响贵重药物的疗效。利用抗坏血酸-药物共轭物的概念,我们成功开发出了一种噻唑酰胺共轭物,与之前报道的母体噻唑酰胺相比,它的药代动力学特征得到了改善。
