γ-Secretase Modulators: Can We Combine Potency with Safety?
γ-Secretase modulation has been proposed as a potential disease modifying anti-Alzheimer's approach. γ-Secretase modulators (GSMs) cause a product shift from the longer amyloid-beta (Aβ) peptide isoforms to shorter, more soluble, and less amyloidogenic isoforms, without inhibiting APP or Notch proteolytic processing. As such, modulating γ-secretase may avoid some of the adverse effects observed...
متن کاملSubstrate docking to γ-secretase allows access of γ-secretase modulators to an allosteric site
γ-Secretase generates the peptides of Alzheimer's disease, Aβ(40) and Aβ(42), by cleaving the amyloid precursor protein within its transmembrane domain. γ-Secretase also cleaves numerous other substrates, raising concerns about γ-secretase inhibitor off-target effects. Another important class of drugs, γ-secretase modulators, alter the cleavage site of γ-secretase on amyloid precursor protein, ...
متن کاملTarget of γ-secretase modulators, presenilin marks the spot.
c-Secretase modulators, or GSMs, which reduce the production of Ab42, have emerged as a promising class of compounds for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). The target and mechanism of action of GSMs have been controversial as of late, with some evidence suggesting that GSMs function by binding the substrate, amyloid precursor protein (APP), and others claiming action through direct modu...
متن کاملComplex Relationships between Substrate Sequence and Sensitivity to Alterations in γ-Secretase Processivity Induced by γ-Secretase Modulators
γ-Secretase catalyzes the final cleavage of the amyloid precursor protein (APP), resulting in the production of amyloid-β (Aβ) peptides with different carboxyl termini. Presenilin (PSEN) and amyloid precursor protein (APP) mutations linked to early onset familial Alzheimer's disease modify the profile of Aβ isoforms generated, by altering both the initial γ-secretase cleavage site and subsequen...
متن کاملN-alkylated isatins evade P-gp mediated efflux and retain potency in MDR cancer cell lines
The search for novel anticancer therapeutics with the ability to overcome multi-drug resistance (MDR) mechanisms is of high priority. A class of molecules that show potential in overcoming MDR are the N-alkylated isatins. In particular 5,7-dibromo-N-alkylisatins are potent microtubule destabilizing agents that act to depolymerize microtubules, induce apoptosis and inhibit primary tumor growth i...
