摘要:
The invention provides compounds having a spiro heterocyclic unit connected through a linker of a certain length to another spiro cycle, an imidazole ring or an amide group. Some of these compounds have been obtained from Aplysinia cavernicola and a mixture of Aplysina fulva and Oceanapia. The compounds exhibit VDCC blocker activity; some also show acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase inhibition activities. Therefore they are useful in the treatment of cognitive and neurodegenerative disorders, such as brain ischemia, stroke, cognitive disorders as senile dementia, cerebrovascular dementia, mild recognition impairment, attention deficit disorder, and/or neurodegenerative dementing disease with aberrant protein aggregations as specially Alzheimers's disease or condition, or prion disease as Creutzfeld-Jakob disease or Gerstmann-Straussler-Scheinker disease.

摘要:
The present invention provides the use of a compound of formula (I); wherein: n is 0, 1, 2, or 3, the bonds shown with the dashed lines are saturated, or unsaturated with one or more double bonds; R, and R’ are independently selected from hydrogen, alkyl, aryl, -OH, -OR’’ -SH, -SR’’- NH’’ -NHR', =O, =NH, =NR'; R' is independently selected frorn alkyl, aryl, in the preparation of a medicament for the treatment of a disease requiring a GSK-3 inhibitor. Also provided is a compound of formula (II); wherein n is 0, 1, 2, or 3 the bonds shown with the dashed lines are saturated, or unsaturated with one or more double bonds. Also provided are methods of treating chronic neurodegenerative conditions.
