In vitro evaluation of isatin-pyridine oxime hybrids as potential acetylcholinesterase inhibitors for nerve agent prophylaxis

Author(s): Silva MCJD; Pinto AMV; Balthar MA; Correa ABA; Bhattacharyya D; Simas ABC; Kuca K; Forgione P; França TCC; Cavalcante SFA; Kitagawa DAS;

Given the recent deployment of nerve agents as a method of warfare and in targeted assassinations, the development of robust, broad-spectrum medical countermeasures is essential. Our research group has synthesized isatin-pyridine oxime hybrids that have previously demonstrated the ability to resc ...

Repurposing Sigma-1 Receptor-Targeting Drugs for Therapeutic Advances in Neurodegenerative Disorders

Author(s): Eskandari K; Bélanger SM; Lachance V; Kourrich S;

Neurodegenerative disorders, such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and Huntington's disease, due to their multifaced and complicated nature, remain uncurable and impose substantial financial and human burdens on society. Therefore, developing new innovative therapeutic strategies is vital. In this context, drug repurposing has emerged as a promisi ...

Microglial senescence in neurodegeneration: Insights, implications, and therapeutic opportunities

Author(s): Samuel Olajide T; Oyerinde TO; Omotosho OI; Okeowo OM; Olajide OJ; Ijomone OM;

The existing literature on neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs) reveals a common pathological feature: the accumulation of misfolded proteins. However, the heterogeneity in disease onset mechanisms and the specific brain regions affected complicates the understanding of the diverse clinical manifestations of individual NDDs. Dementia, a hallmark symptom acro ...

Gait variability across neurodegenerative and cognitive disorders: Results from the Canadian Consortium of Neurodegeneration in Aging (CCNA) and the Gait and Brain Study.

Author(s): Pieruccini-Faria F, Black SE, Masellis M, Smith EE, Almeida QJ, Li KZH, Bherer L, Camicioli R, Montero-Odasso M

INTRODUCTION: Gait impairment is common in neurodegenerative disorders. Specifically, gait variability-the stride-to-stride fluctuations in distance and time-has been associated with neurodegeneration and cognitive impairment. However, quantitative comparisons of gait impairments across the cogni ...
