How Edonerpic works
T-817MA has neuroprotective properties. Toyama Chemical has demonstrated that T-817MA prevents neurodegeneration induced by Amyloid-b protein. Accumulation of Amyloid-b protein is considered to be central to the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease. The neuroprotective properties of T-817MA were also observed in a mutant tau induced Alzheimer's disease model. Besides these neuroprotective properties, T-817MA also promotes neurite outgrowth.
