PPZ2 is a diacylglycerol (DAG)-activated TRPC3/TRPC6/TRPC7 channel activator with activity in promoting neuronal development and survival. PPZ2 activates recombinant TRPC3/TRPC6/TRPC7 channels in a dose-dependent manner without affecting other TRPC channels. PPZ2 elicits cation currents and calcium ion (Ca(2+)) influx in cultured central neurons. PPZ2 is able to induce BDNF-like neurite outgrowth and neuroprotection, an effect that disappears after TRPC3/TRPC6/TRPC7 knockdown or inhibition. PPZ2 also increases the activation of the calcium-dependent transcription factor cAMP response element binding protein. The effects of PPZ2 suggest that calcium signaling mediated by activation of DAG-activated TRPC channels plays an important role in its neurotrophic effects .

3,759 compounds

Neurodegenerative diseases are incurable and life-threatening conditions that result in progressive degeneration and/or death of nerve cells. Some common neurodegenerative diseases include Alzheimer’s Disease (AD), Parkinson’s Disease (PD), Motor Neuron Disease (MND), Huntington’s Disease (HD), Spino-Cerebellar Ataxia (SCA), Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA), and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). Because the pathophysiology of neurodegenerative disorders is generally poorly understood, it is difficult to identify promising molecular targets and validate them. At the same time, about 85% of the drugs fail in clinical trials. Therefore, validating new targets and discovering new drugs to mitigate neurodegenerative disorders is need of the hour.

MCE offers a unique collection of 3,759 compounds with anti-Neurodegenerative Diseases activities or targeting the unique targets of neurodegenerative diseases. MCE Neurodegenerative Disease-related Compound Library is a useful tool for exploring the mechanism of neurodegenerative diseases and discovering new drugs for neurodegenerative diseases.
