BACE-1 plays a pivotal role in the production of β-amyloid (Aβ) peptides, implicated in Alzheimer's Disease (AD) pathology. We previously described edaravone N-benzyl pyridinium derivatives (EBPDs) that exhibited multifunctional activity against multiple AD targets. In this study we explored the EBPDs BACE-1 inhibitory activity to potentially enhance the compounds therapeutic profile. The EBPDs exhibited moderate BACE-1 inhibitory activity (IC Show less
