Beschreibung

Homotaurine is a secretase inhibitor that has been shown to have anti-Alzheimer's disease effects in vivo. It has been shown to increase serum prolactin levels and improve locomotor activity in mice. Homotaurine also has the ability to inhibit the production of glutamate, an excitatory neurotransmitter, through its inhibition of N-acetyl-L-aspartate (NAA) synthesis. This drug is also an oral prodrug, which can be activated by hydrolysis in the gastrointestinal tract to release homotaurine. The reaction mechanism for this compound is not yet clear but it may involve natural compounds such as choline or acetylcholine.
