The present invention relates to a novel method for the treatment and/or prophylaxis of a tau-mediated neurodegenerative disease and/or of a tau-mediated neurodegenerative pathological condition, especially of a neurodegenerative disease and/or of a neurodegenerative pathological condition associated with and/or accompanied by tau aggregation, and in particular for the treatment and/or prophylaxis of a tauopathy; compounds and/or agents and compositions for such treatment and/or prophylaxis, and the manufacture of the compounds and/or agents and compositions suitable for the said treatment and/or prophylaxis. In this regard, the present invention relates especially to the use of compounds acting as PERK activator, a prodrug thereof, a derivative thereof and/or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of any thereof, as a medicament. In contrast to the prior art which addresses mainly PERK inhibition, or occasionally only the apoptotic arm of PERK of activation, the present invention pertains to the effects of indirect or direct PERK activation achieved via the neuroprotective arm of PERK signaling.
本发明涉及一种治疗和/或预防tau介导的神经退行性疾病和/或tau介导的神经退行性病理状态的新方法,特别是与tau聚集相关和/或伴有tau聚集的神经退行性疾病和/或神经退行性病理状态,尤其是治疗和/或预防tau病;用于这种治疗和/或预防的化合物和/或制剂及组合物,以及适用于上述治疗和/或预防的化合物和/或制剂及组合物的制造。在这方面,本发明尤其涉及作为 PERK 激活剂的化合物、其原药、其衍生物和/或其药学上可接受的盐作为药物的用途。现有技术主要涉及 PERK 抑制,或者偶尔只涉及 PERK 激活的凋亡部分,而本发明则涉及通过 PERK 信号转导的神经保护部分实现的间接或直接 PERK 激活的效果。
