https://www.selleckchem.com/ Fat-1 offspring were protected from the reduced fatty acid oxidation and excess oxidative stress observed in offspring of WT high-fat-fed dams. These results indicate that a maternal fat-1 transgene has protective effects against offspring liver and skeletal muscle lipotoxicity resulting from a maternal high-fat diet, particularly in males. Altering maternal fatty acid composition, without changing maternal dietary composition or weight gain with high-fat feeding, may highlight important strategies for n-3-based prevention of developmental programming of obesity and its complications.We report herein the design, synthesis and biological evaluation of new antioxidant and neuroprotective multitarget directed ligands (MTDLs) able to block Ca2+ channels. New dialkyl 2,6-dimethyl-4-(4-(prop-2-yn-1-yloxy)phenyl)-1,4-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarboxylate MTDLs 3a-t, resulting from the juxtaposition of nimodipine, a Ca2+ channel antagonist, and rasagiline, a known MAO inhibitor, have been obtained from appropriate and commercially available precursors using a Hantzsch reaction. Pertinent biological analysis has prompted us to identify the MTDL 3,5-dimethyl-2,6-dimethyl-4-[4-(prop-2-yn-1-yloxy)phenyl]-1,4-dihydro- pyridine- 3,5-dicarboxylate (3a), as an attractive antioxidant (1.75 TE), Ca2+ channel antagonist (46.95% at 10 μM), showing significant neuroprotection (38%) against H2O2 at 10 μM, being considered thus a hit-compound for further investigation in our search for anti-Alzheimer's disease agents.Cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) is a cerebrovascular disease directly implicated in Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathogenesis through amyloid-β (Aβ) deposition, which may cause the development and progression of dementia. Despite extensive studies to explore drugs targeting Aβ, clinical benefits have not been reported in large clinical trials in AD patients or presymptomatic individuals at a risk for AD. However, recent studies on CAA and AD have provid
