gamma-Secretase Modulators serves as a useful treatment for Alzheimer's disease by inhibiting the production of Amyloid-β. Specifically, it acts as a gamma-Secretase Modulators with an IC50 value.
gamma-secretase modulator 2 is a potent and selective γ-secretase modulator for treatment of Alzheimer's disease .γ-secretase modulator is modulation of the action of γ-secretase so as to Selectively attenuate production of Aβ(1-42) and hence find use in treatment or prevention of diseases associated with deposition of Aβ in the brain. γ-secretase modulator is usful in particular Alzheimer's disease.
ELND006 is a novel gammasecretase inhibitor previously under investigation for the oral treatment of Alzheimer's disease. ELND006 shows poor solubility and has moderate to high permeability. The in vivo performance of the ELND006 nanosuspension was tested in fed and fasted beagle dogs and compared with a gelatin capsule containing reference API. The results show that nanosizing ELND006 profoundly improved the oral bioavailability and virtually eliminated variation resulting from food intake.
Sodium MK-0752 is a novel and potent gamma-secretase inhibitor that has been evaluated in clinical trials for the treatment of various types of cancer.
γ-Secretase modulator 4 is a potent γ-secretase modulator, reduces the Aβ42 level with IC50s of 0.017 μM and 0.014 μM in mouse and human, respectively.
Potent γ-secretase inhibitor (IC50 values are 1.2 and 6.2 nM in whole cell and cell-free assays, respectively). Reduces Aβ in brain, CSF and plasma in mice and guinea pigs.

Begacestat is a selective thiophene sulfonamide amyloid precursor protein gamma-secretase inhibitor (Aβ40,IC50=15 nM),and for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease.
Z-LLNle-CHO is a cell permeable inhibitor of gamma-secretase. Z-LLNle-CHO induces apoptosis of human glioblastoma tumor-initiating cells by proteasome inhibition and mitotic arrest response.
