| Abstract | Molecules designed to sequester, redistribute and/or remove metal ions are attractive therapeutic agents in neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease. The multifactorial nature of the condition and the generally poor target specificity associated with metal ion-binding therapy has led to the development of multifunctional 3-hydroxy-4-(1H)-pyridinone pro-ligands. The excellent qualities of the basic 3-hydroxy-4-pyridinone framework as a low toxicity metal chelator and an antioxidant, as well as its antibacterial and analgesic properties among other functions, inspired us to functionalize it with a framework derived from thioflavin-T, the well-known traditional dye used as a marker to detect amyloid deposits in tissue sections. Thus 2-methyl-3-hydroxy-1-(4-dimethylaminophenyl)-4(1H)-pyridinone (HL1), 2-methyl-3-hydroxy-1-(4-methylaminophenyl)-4(1H)-pyridinone (HL2), 1-(4-aminophenyl)-3-hydroxy-2-methyl-4(1H)-pyridinone (HL3), 1-(6-benzothiazolyl)-3-hydroxy-2-methyl-4(1H)-pyridinone (HL4), 1-(2-benzothiazolyl)-3-hydroxy-2-methyl-4(1H)-pyridinone (HL5) and 2-methyl-3-hydroxy-1-[4-(4-bromophenyl)-2-thiazolyl]-4(1H)-pyridinone (HL6) were obtained. Glycosylation, as well as incorporation of structures mimicking those of known amyloid imaging agents, may target drug action to the site of interest, the metal-overloaded amyloid plaques in the Alzheimer's brain. The pro-ligands were assessed for their antioxidant activity, cytotoxicity and ability to interfere with metal ion-induced amyloid peptide aggregation to screen promising lead compounds. Finally, in a brain uptake study with a radiolabeled glucoconjugate pyridinone, 3-(β-D-glucopyranosyloxy)-1-[4-(4-[125I]iodophenyl)-2-thiazolyl]-2-methyl-4(1H)-pyridinone ([125I]-GL7) was shown to cross the blood–brain barrier using an in situ rat brain perfusion technique. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
