AD is characterised by an aberrant accumulation of proteins in the form of aggregates. The axonal microtubule-associated protein Tau and arnyloid-beta undergo structural transition to beta-sheet rich structure and form aggregates in neuronal soma as well as in the extracellular region. The loss of Tau from microtubules leads to the disintegration of axon and causing neuronal degeneration. This led to the development of effective drugs against AD, to prevent Tau aggregation. Here, we synthesized and screen metal-based complexes to prevent Tau protein aggregation. ThS fluorescence and TEM suggested the role of synthetic cobalt complexes in inhibiting Tau aggregation. CD spectroscopy showed that these complexes prevented conformational changes in Tau to beta-sheet. CBMCs were not toxic at lower concentrations and formed non-toxic Tau species. L1 and L2 prevented membrane leakage: whereas, higher concentrations of L3 caused membrane leakage as observed by LDH release assay. The overall results indicate the synthetic cobalt complexes to be a promising molecule against AD. (C) 2020 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.&lt;/p&gt;

The peptidomimetics strategy to prevent tau aggregation is more specific over other small molecules. In the present study, we analyzed the effect of amyloid-beta-derived peptidomimetics for inhibiting heparin-induced tau aggregation in vitro. These peptides and their derivatives were known to prevent aggregation of amyloid-beta. KLVFF is a hydrophobic sequence of the pentapeptide that prevented tau aggregation as observed by thioflavin S fluorescence, transmission electron microscopy, and circular dichroism spectroscopy. P4 and P5 also prevented assembly of tau into aggregates and formed short fibrils. The beta-sheet breaker LPFFD was however ineffective in preventing tau aggregation. The peptides further demonstrated reversal of tau-induced cytotoxicity in a dose-dependent manner. Our results suggested that these peptides can also be used to inhibit tau aggregation and also, toxicity induced by tau could be considered as potential molecules that have an effect on tau as well as amyloid-beta.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">17</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Foreign&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3.512</style></custom4></record></records></xml>
