Abstract
SAR of a novel series of pyridine-derived γ-secretase modulators is described. Compound 5 was found to be a potent modulator in vitro, which on further profiling, was found to decrease Aβ42 and Aβ40, and maintain (or increase) the levels of total Aβ. Furthermore, representative compounds 1 and 5 demonstrated in vivo efficacy to lower Aβ42 in the brain without altering Notch processing in the peripheral.
