  • Patent number: 8871460
    Abstract: In accordance with the present invention, it has been discovered that compounds which modulate the ?-secretase enzyme to make more of the shorter, less toxic and less aggregation-prone A? peptides (such as A?37 and A?38), while making less of the longer and more toxic and aggregation-prone AB peptides (such as AB40 and AB42) are useful as gamma-secretase modulators. In addition, these GSM compounds have further been discovered to have the selective property of modulating the formation of various AB peptides, while not inhibiting the overall activity of the ?-secretase enzyme. Thus, such compounds do not impede other critical functions of the ?-secretase enzyme, such as generating fragments from Notch that appear to control gene expression and cell differentiation. Therefore, in accordance with the present invention, there are provided screening assays useful for determining whether test compounds have GSM activity; accordingly, invention assays facilitate the identification of new gamma-secretase modulators.
