Geography Covered
Tau protein inhibitors Understanding
Tau protein inhibitors: Overview
Tau proteins are proteins that perform the function of stabilizing microtubules. These proteins are abundant in nerve cells and are present to a much lesser degree in oligodendrocytes and astrocytes. When Tau proteins become defective and fail to adequately stabilize microtubules, pathologies of the nervous system can develop such as Alzheimer’s disease.
Function - Tau proteins are mainly active in the distal portions of axons where they stabilize microtubules as well as providing flexibility. The proteins work together with a globular protein called tubulin to stabilize microtubules and aid the assembly of tubulin in the microtubules. Tau proteins achieve their control of microtubule stability through isoforms and phosphorylation. Hyperphosphorylation of tau proteins can cause the helical and straight filaments to tangle (referred to as neurofibrillary tangles). These tangles contribute to the pathology of Alzheimer’s disease.
Tau protein inhibitors - Alzheimer disease is characterized by pathological aggregation of two proteins, tau and Aβ-amyloid, both of which are considered to be toxic to neurons. Recent advances have shown small molecule inhibitors of protein aggregation with emphasis on tau, with activities mediated by the direct interference of self-assembly. The inhibitors can be clustered in several compound classes according to their chemical structure, with subsequent description of the structure–activity relationships, showing that hydrophobic interactions are prevailing.
