Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by the accumulation of tau protein tangles and amyloid-β (Aβ) plaques in the central nervous system (CNS), leading to progressive neurodegeneration. Hence, the discovery of disease-modifying agents capable of delaying the progression is essential for effective management. Aminonaphthoquinone (ANQ) is an attractive pharmacophore with various biological effects. This study explores the neuroprotective potentials of ANQ derivatives (1-18) using in vitro models of AD pathology (i.e., Aβ Show less
