Abstract

Abstract The in vitro neuronal cell death model based on the HT22 mouse hippocampal cell model is a convenient means of identifying compounds that protect against oxidative glutamate toxicity which plays a role in the development of certain neurodegenerative diseases. Functionalized acridin-9-yl-phenylamines were found to protect HT22 cells from glutamate challenge at submicromolar concentrations. The Aryl 1-NH-Aryl 2 scaffold that ...
