Biological Activity
IC50: 0.66 μM (tau), 1.2 μM (Aβ)[1]
PE859 inhibits the heparin-induced aggregation of both 3RMBD and full length tau in a concentration-dependent manner. In each assay, the IC50 values calculated at the last measurement periods are 0.81 μM, and 2.23 μM, respectively. PE859 inhibits tau aggregation through formation of beta-sheet structure[2].

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.
- For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
- To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for In Vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
- The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 40% PEG300 5% Tween-80 45% Saline
Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (5.57 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.
Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.

Working solution concentration: 0.22 mg/mL
Method for preparing stock solution: mg drug dissolved in μL DMSO. Stock solution concentration: mg/mL.
1. Take μL DMSO stock solution;
2. Add μL .
μL , mix evenly;
3. Then add μL Tween 80, mix evenly;
4. Then add μL
Please ensure that the stock solution in the first step is dissolved to a clear state, and add co-solvents in sequence. You can use ultrasonic heating (ultrasonic cleaner, recommended frequency 20-40 kHz), vortexing, etc. to assist dissolution.
Protocol
Tau aggregation is monitored using thioflavin T. The test compound (PE859), 10 μM 3RMBD and 10 μM heparin are dissolved in 50 mM Tris-HCl (pH7.6), and incubated at 37°C up to 144 hours. At each point of incubation time, 135 μL of the solutions are removed and mixed with 15 μL of 100 μM ThT solution (final concentration: 10 μM) and the fluorescence intensity with excitation at 440 nm and emission at 486 nm is measured[2].

Mice: PE859 is dissolved in 80% PEG400 and 20% water solution at 5 mg/mL, and orally-administered at a dose of 40 mg/kg/day for 6 months (from 9 to 15 months of age). The body weights of the mice are measured once a week during PE859 treatment[2].
