Chemical Name:
N-[(3,5-Difluorophenyl)acetyl]-L-alanyl-2-phenyl]glycin
e-1,1-dimethylethyl ester |
|
|
Biological Activity:
Inhibitor of γ-secretase;
causes a reduction in Aβ40 and Aβ42
levels in human primary neuronal cultures (IC50 values are 115 and
200 nM for total Aβ and Aβ42
respectively) and in brain extract, cerebrospinal fluid and plasma in vivo.
Does not effect APPα and APPβ
levels. Blocks notch signalling in hybrid human-mouse foetal thymus organ
culture (FTOC).
