Evidence from a mouse model supports repurposing an anti-asthmatic drug, bambuterol, against Alzheimer’s disease by administration through an intranasal route
Abstract Bambuterol is a long-acting anti-asthmatic prodrug which releases terbutaline. Terbutaline is an agonist of the β2-adrenergic receptors which is formed by decarbamoylation of bambuterol by butyrylcholinesterase. Inhibition of the latter, as well as activation of β2-AR, are of interest for t...
