Discovery of an ApoE4-targeted small-molecule SirT1 enhancer for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease
23 Apr 2025
Abstract excerpt
Decreased expression of sirtuin 1 (SirT1) has been implicated in Alzheimer's disease (AD), and as we previously reported, is related to transcriptional repression by the major risk factor for sporadic AD, apolipoprotein E4 (ApoE4). Herein we describe the discovery of an orally brain-permeable small-molecule, DDL-218, that enhanced SirT1 in ApoE4-expressing neuronal cells and a murine AD model. DDL-218 increased...
