摘要
Astrocytes' roles in late-onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD) promotion are important, since they survive soluble or fibrillar amyloid-beta peptides (A beta s) neurotoxic effects, undergo alterations of intracellular and intercellular Ca2+ signaling and gliotransmitters release via the A beta/alpha 7-nAChR (alpha 7-nicotinic acetylcholine receptor) signaling, and overproduce/oversecrete newly synthesized A beta(42) oligomers, NO, and VEGF-A via the A beta/CaSR (calcium-sensing receptor) signaling. Recently, it was suggested that the NMDAR (N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor) inhibitor nitromemantine would block the synapse-destroying effects of A beta/alpha 7-nAChR signaling. Yet, this and the progressive extracellular accrual and spreading of A beta(42) oligomers would be stopped well upstream by NPS 2143, an allosteric CaSR antagonist (calcilytic).

Calcium-sensing receptor antagonist (calcilytic) NPS 2143 specifically blocks the increased secretion of endogenous Aβ42 prompted by exogenous fibrillary or soluble Aβ25-35 in human cortical astrocytes and neurons-Therapeutic relevance to Alzheimer's disease [J].
