RESUMO

The accumulation and aggregation of the microtubule-associated protein tau (tau) into intracellular neuronal tangles are a hallmark of a range of progressive neurodegenerative tauopathies, including Alzheimer's disease (AD), frontotemporal dementia, Pick's disease, and progressive supranuclear palsy. The aberrant phosphorylation of tau is associated with tau aggregates in AD. Members of the heat shock protein 70 kDa (Hsp70) family of chaperones bind directly to tau and modulate tau clearance and aggregation. Small molecules that inhibit the Hsp70 family of chaperones have been shown to reduce the accumulation of tau, including phosphorylated tau. Here, eight analogs of the rhodacyanine inhibitor, JG-98, were synthesized and evaluated. Like JG-98, many of the compounds inhibited ATPase activity of the cytosolic heat shock cognate 70 protein (Hsc70) and reduced total, aggregated, and phosphorylated tau accumulation in cultured cells. Three compounds, representing divergent clogP values, were evaluated for in vivo blood-brain barrier penetration and tau reduction in an ex vivo brain slice model. AL69, the compound with the lowest clogP and the lowest membrane retention in a parallel artificial membrane permeability assay (PAMPA), reduced phosphorylated tau accumulation. Our results suggest that benzothiazole substitutions of JG-98 that increase hydrophilicity may increase the efficacy of these Hsp70 inhibitors to reduce phosphorylated tau.
