Abstract

A series of novel chalcone derivatives was designed, synthesized and evaluated as multifunctional agents for the treatment of AD. Among of these synthesized compounds, compound TM-2 was a selective BuChE inhibitor (IC<sub>50</sub> = 2.6 μM) and selective MAO-B inhibitor (IC<sub>50</sub> = 5.3 μM), which were supported by docking study. Compound TM-2 also showed good antioxidant activity, and was a selective metal chelator, as well as a neuroprotectant. Moreover, compound TM-2 could significantly inhibit self-induced and Cu<sup>2+</sup>-induced Aβ<sub>1-42</sub> aggregation with 70.2% and 80.7% inhibition rate, respectively, and could disaggregate Cu<sup>2+</sup>-induced Aβ<sub>1-42</sub> aggregation (73.5%), the further TEM images observed provided rational explanation. Besides, compound TM-2 displayed good PAMPA-BBB permeability and conformed to the Lipinski's rule of five. Further, compound TM-2 presented precognitive effect on scopolamine-induced memory impairment in vivo assay. Therefore, compound TM-2 might be a promising multifunctional hit compound for the treatment of AD, and the further structure optimization are in progress.
