Title of Invention | PROPHYLACTIC, THERAPEUTIC, OR DIAGNOSTIC DRUG FOR ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE USING MICROORGANISM-DERIVED COMPOUND |
Abstract | Present invention provides a prophylactic, therapeutic, or diagnostic drug for Alzheimer's disease (AD) using a microorganism-derived compound. Specifically provided are a prophylactic or therapeutic agent for AD that includes at least one compound selected from the group consisting of Mer-A2026A, verrucarin A, kalafungin, concanamycin A, efomycin A, brefeldin A, eupenifeldin, elaiophylin, and boromycin, and a diagnostic agent for AD that includes at least one compound selected from the group consisting of the aforementioned compounds, roridin A, leucanicidin, bafilomycin A1, and bafilomycin B1. The inventors completed this invention upon finding that the aforementioned specific compounds from microorganism-derived compound libraries brought changes in the amount of Aβ42 or the ratio of Aβ42/40 in neurons differentiated from AD patient-derived iPS cells. |
