Abstract
A series of 2-hydroxy-4-benzyloxylimine resveratrol derivatives was designed, synthesized and evaluated as multifunctional agents for the treatment of Parkinson's disease. The results revealed that most derivatives possessed good multifunctional activities. Among them, representative compound (E)-5-[(4-fluorobenzyl)oxy]-2-{[(4-hydroxyphenyl)imino]methyl}phenol (7 h) exhibited excellent MAO-B inhibition (IC50 =8.43×10-3 μM) and high antioxidant activity (ORAC=3.45 Trolox equivalent). Additionally, 7 h displayed good metal chelating ability, appropriate blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability, significant neuroprotective effect, and great anti-neuroinflammatory activity. Furthermore, 7 h can also ameliorate 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP)-induced Parkinson's disease symptoms in mice. Therefore, compound 7 h was found to be a promising candidate for further development against PD.
