  • Publication number: 20230288432
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods for the identification, characterization and ranking of putative tau monomer stabilizing agents. Specifically, the disclosure provides methods for assessing the capability of a test compound to stabilize a tau monomer, methods of prioritizing a plurality of test compounds from a library identified as tau monomer stabilizing agents, methods of screening a test compound library to identify tau monomer stabilizing agents, and a kit providing the reagents to perform the described methods.

  • Patent number: 7803559
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a high-throughput assay to measure intracellular polyglutamine protein aggregation using fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET). Three libraries of over 3000 biologically active small molecules were screened for inhibitory activity, and a lead compound was characterized in detail. Y-27632, an inhibitor of the Rho-associated kinase p160ROCK, diminished polyglutamine protein aggregation at micromolar concentrations, and reduced neurodegeneration in a Drosophila model of polyglutamine disease.
