Ladostigil (TV-3326) hemitartrate is an orally active dual inhibitor of cholinesterase and brain-selective monoamine oxidase (MAO), with IC50s of 37.1 and 31.8 μM for MAO-B and AChE, respectively. Ladostigil hemitartrate exhibits neuroprotective, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities. Ladostigil hemitartrate can be used for the research of depression and Alzheimer’s disease[1][2]. Ladostigil (hemitartrate) is a click chemistry reagent, it contains an Alkyne group and can undergo copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAc) with molecules containing Azide groups.
Ladostigil (1-10 µM) hemitartrate exerts neuroprotective activities, including a prevention of the fall of the mitochondrial membrane potential (ψ), attenuation of apoptotic cascades and an inhibition of ROS production induced by OS insults[2].
Ladostigil (1-10 µM) hemitartrate has a significant neuroprotective activity, including inhibition of caspase-3 activation, induction of Bcl-2 and reduction of Bad and Bax gene and protein expression in human neuroblastoma SK-N-SH cells[2].
Ladostigil (17 mg/kg; p.o. daily for 6 weeks) hemitartrate abolishes their hyperanxiety and depressive-like behaviour in the elevated plus maze (EPM) and forced swim tests (FST) tests in adulthood from puberty to prenatally-stressed rats[4].
Ladostigil (50 μmol/kg; single p.o.) hemitartrate restores the loss of episodic memory in the object recognition test in rats[3].
