Among the compounds able to efficiently inhibit the amyloid aggregation of proteins and decompose the amyloid aggregates that cause neurodegenerative diseases, of particular interest are dendrimers, which represent individual macromolecules with the hypercrosslinked architectures and given molecular parameters. This short review outlines the peculiarities of the antiamyloid activity of dendrimers and discusses the effect of dendrimer structures and external factors on their antiamyloid properties. The potential of application of dendrimers in further investigations on the aggregation processes of amyloid proteins as the compounds that exhibit the remarkable antiamyloid activity is evaluated.

This study presents the synthesis of binary tetrohydro-γ-carbolines with ditriazol spacers of varying length, which exhibit anticholinesterase and antioxidant activity, as compared to the original Dimebon prototype. Anticholinesterase activity suggests the potential ability of the new compounds to block β-amyloid aggregation induced by anticholinesterase, making them promising candidates for further research preparations for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease. Particular attention should be paid to the conjugate with an intertriazol hexamethylene spacer, which can be regarded as the leading compound in this series.
