Dehydroevodiamine
Based on 3 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Dehydroevodiamine is a blood-brain barrier-permeable, orally effective AChE and BACE1 inhibitor (IC50 = 40.96 μM). Dehydroevodiamine is isolated and extracted from Evodia rutaecarpa. Dehydroevodiamine attenuates neurotoxicity through multiple targets by inhibiting BACE1 to block Aβ production, inhibiting AChE activity, scavenging ROS, and suppressing calcium influx. Dehydroevodiamine can be used for research on Alzheimer's disease, cerebral ischemia, vascular dementia, and other cognitive disorder-related diseases.

Dehydroevodiamine (6.25 mg/kg; i.p.; single administration 30 min before ischemia or once daily for 7 consecutive days after ischemia) reduces cerebral infarct size and attenuates neuronal damage in the hippocampus and cognitive deficits in a middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCA)-induced focal cerebral ischemia model in Sprague-Dawley rats[4].
Dehydroevodiamine (6.25 mg/kg; i.p.; once daily; for 7 consecutive days) significantly reduces neuronal death in the hippocampus and dentate gyrus and ameliorates memory impairment in a Sprague-Dawley rat model of electrolytic lesion of the entorhinal cortex (EC)[4].
Dehydroevodiamine (0.03-0.3 mg/kg; i.v.; single administration; observation for 1-10 min) selectively increases cerebral cortical blood flow without affecting other cardiopulmonary functions in anesthetized adult cats[1].
