JNCASR develops potential drug candidate for Alzheimer’s disease JNCASR develops potential drug candidate for Alzheimer’s disease 24 February 2021 | News A team of scientists have designed and synthesised a set of novel small molecules and identified a lead candidate which they found could reduce the toxicity of Amyloid Beta (Aβ) toxicity Source: PIB Scientists have developed a small molecule that disrupts the mechanism through which neurons become dysfunctional in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). The molecule could be a potential drug candidate to halt or cure the leading cause of dementia (70-80 per cent) worldwide. A team of scientists led by Professor T Govindaraju from Jawaharlal Nehru Centre for Advanced Scientific Research (JNCASR), an autonomous institute of the Department of Science & Technology, Government of India, designed and synthesised a set of novel small molecules and identified a lead candidate which they found could reduce the toxic
