FO-4-15,a novel 1,2,4-oxadiazole derivative,ameliorates cognitive impairments in 3×Tg mice by activating the mGluR1/CaMKⅡα pathway
Alzheimer's disease(AD)is the most prevalent neurodegenerative disorder characterized by cognitive impairments.Despite the limited efficacy of current treatments for AD,the 1,2,4-oxadiazole structure has garnered significant attention in medicinal chemistry due to its potential impact on mGluR1 and its association with AD therapy.In this study,a series of novel 1,2,4-oxadiazole derivatives were designed,synthesized,and evaluated for the neuroprotective effects in human neuroblastoma(SH-SY5Y)cells.Among all the derivatives tested,FO-4-15(5f)existed the lowest cytotoxicity and the highest protective effect against H2O2.Based on these in vitro results,FO-4-15 was administered to 3×Tg mice and significantly improved the cognitive impairments of the AD mice.Pathological analysis showed that FO-4-15 significantly reduced Aβ accumulation,Tau hyper-phosphorylation,and synaptic impairments in the 3×Tg mice.Dysfunction of the CaMKⅡα/Fos signaling pathway in 3×Tg mice was found to be restored by FO-4-15 and the necessity of the CaMKⅡα/Fos for FO-4-15 was subsequently confirmed by the use of a CaMKⅡα inhibitor in vitro.Beyond that,mGluR1 was identified to be a potential target of FO-4-15,and the interaction of FO-4-15 and mGluR1 was displayed by Ca2+flow increase,molecular docking,and interaction energy analysis.The target of FO-4-15 was further confirmed in vitro by JNJ16259685,a nonselective inhibitor of mGluR1.These findings suggest that FO-4-15 may hold promise as a potential treatment for Alzheimer's disease.
