Journal ArticleDOI
Design, selection, and characterization of thioflavin-based intercalation compounds with metal chelating properties for application in Alzheimer's disease.
Cristina Rodríguez-Rodríguez,Natalia Sanchez de Groot,Albert Rimola,Angel Alvarez-Larena,Vega Lloveras,José Vidal-Gancedo,Salvador Ventura,Josep Vendrell,Mariona Sodupe,Pilar González-Duarte +9 more
TL;DR: The fluorescence features of HBX, HBT, BM, and the corresponding iodinated derivatives, together with fluorescence microscopy studies on two types of pregrown fibrils, have shown that HBX and HBT compounds could behave as potential markers for the presence of amyloid fibril buildup and may be especially suitable for radioisotopic detection of Abeta deposits.
Journal ArticleDOI
The art of building multifunctional metal-binding agents from basic molecular scaffolds for the potential application in neurodegenerative diseases
TL;DR: The state-of-the-art in this latest strategy for designing metal-ion chelators as potential therapeutic agents in neurodegenerative diseases will be discussed, with special emphasis on AD and additional coverage of PD and prion diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI
An Eighteen-Membered Macrocyclic Ligand for Actinium-225 Targeted Alpha Therapy
Nikki A. Thiele,Victoria Brown,James M. Kelly,Alejandro Amor-Coarasa,Una Jermilova,Samantha N. MacMillan,Anastasia Nikolopoulou,Shashikanth Ponnala,Caterina F. Ramogida,Andrew Robertson,Cristina Rodríguez-Rodríguez,Paul Schaffer,Clarence Williams,John W. Babich,Valery Radchenko,Justin J. Wilson +15 more
TL;DR: Findings establish macropa to be a highly promising ligand for 225 Ac chelation that will facilitate the clinical development of 225 Ac TAT for the treatment of soft-tissue metastases.
Journal ArticleDOI
Crystal structure of thioflavin-T and its binding to amyloid fibrils: insights at the molecular level
Cristina Rodríguez-Rodríguez,Albert Rimola,Luis Rodríguez-Santiago,Piero Ugliengo,Angel Alvarez-Larena,Hugo Gutiérrez-de-Terán,Mariona Sodupe,Pilar González-Duarte +7 more
TL;DR: Evidence is given of main stabilizing interactions, which influence the dihedral angle between the two moieties of thioflavin-T and thereby its fluorescence properties; these results shed new light on possible strategies for the design of dyes to bind amyloid fibrils more specifically.
Journal ArticleDOI
N-Aryl-substituted 3-(β-D-glucopyranosyloxy)-2-methyl-4(1H)-pyridinones as agents for Alzheimer's therapy
L. Scott,Maria Telpoukhovskaia,Cristina Rodríguez-Rodríguez,Michael Merkel,Meryn L. Bowen,Brent D. G. Page,David E. Green,Tim Storr,Fancy Thomas,David D. Allen,Paul R. Lockman,Brian O. Patrick,Michael J. Adam,Chris Orvig +13 more
TL;DR: The pro-ligands were assessed for their antioxidant activity, cytotoxicity and ability to interfere with metal ion-induced amyloid peptide aggregation to screen promising lead compounds, and 3-(β-D-glucopyranosyloxy)-1-[4-bromophenyl)-2-thiazolyl]-2-methyl-4(1H)-pyridinone ([125I]-GL7) was shown to cross the blood–brain barrier using an
