Neuroprotective agent 18
Neuroprotective agent 18 is a potent neuroprotective agent. Neuroprotective agent 18 inhibits the activity of NF-κB thereby significantly downregulating the expression of downstream pro-inflammatory mediators (TNF-α, IL-6) and inflammatory enzymes (COX-2) in the hippocampus. Neuroprotective agent 18 binds to AChE thereby partially inhibiting it and modulating cholinergic neurotransmission. Neuroprotective agent 18 can be used in research on Alzheimer's disease.

Neuroprotective agent 18 (compound M5) is capable of binding favorably to multiple proteins involved in neuroinflammation. Neuroprotective agent 18 exhibits moderate to strong docking score (-7.9 kcal/mol, -7.7 kcal/mol, -7.3 kcal/mol and -7.1 kcal/mol) for COX-2, TNF-α, IL-6 complex and NF-κB. Neuroprotective agent 18 produces a comparatively stronger docking score (-9.0 kcal/mol) for AChE[1].

Result:Restored spatial learning and memory consolidation capabilities in a dose-dependent manner in the Morris Water Maze (MWM) test.
Effectively improved hippocampus-dependent short-term working memory in the Y-Maze Test.
Significantly reduced the concentrations of the pro-inflammatory cytokines TNF-α and IL-6 in the hippocampus in a dose-dependent manner, while simultaneously downregulating the expression levels of the inflammation-related enzyme COX-2 and the upstream inflammatory transcription factor NF-κB.
