abstract = {Oligomers of the amyloid-β (Aβ) protein are suspected to
be responsible for the development and progression of
Alzheimer’s disease. Thus, the development of compounds
that are able to eliminate already formed toxic Aβ
oligomers is very desirable. Here, we describe the in vivo
efficacy of the compound RD2, which was developed to
directly and specifically eliminate toxic Aβ oligomers. In
a truly therapeutic, rather than a preventive study, oral
treatment with RD2 was able to reverse cognitive deficits
and significantly reduce Aβ pathology in old-aged
transgenic Alzheimer’s Disease mice with full-blown
pathology and behavioral deficits. For the first time, we
demonstrate the in vivo target engagement of RD2 by showing
a significant reduction of Aβ oligomers in the brains of
RD2-treated mice compared to placebo-treated mice. The
correlation of Aβ elimination in vivo and the reversal of
cognitive deficits in old-aged transgenic mice support the
hypothesis that Aβ oligomers are relevant not only for
disease development and progression, but also offer a
promising target for the causal treatment of Alzheimer’s
disease.},
