Stopping aggregation: Carbazole‐based cyanine fluorophores bind selectively to the Aβ(1–40) peptide and its aggregates which are responsible for causing Alzheimer's disease. One of these fluorophores, SLOH, exerts a strong inhibitory effect on Aβ(1–40) fibrillogenesis (see scheme) and can pass through the blood‐brain barrier making it a potential therapeutic agent for Alzheimer's disease.
停止聚集:基于咔唑的花青荧光团与Aβ (1–40)肽及其聚集体选择性结合,而Aβ (1–40)肽及其聚集体可引起阿尔茨海默氏病。其中的一种荧光团SLOH对Aβ (1–40)的原纤维形成具有很强的抑制作用(参见方案),并且可以穿过血脑屏障,使其成为阿尔茨海默氏病的潜在治疗剂。
