Abstract
Ceramide accumulation in neurons during various disorders is associated with acute and chronic neurodegeneration. Here we investigate the neuroprotective effects of furopyrazole derivative of benzylindazole analogs on C2 ceramide-induced cell death in primary cortical neurons. Among the 12 furopyrazole derivative of benzylindazole analogs tested, carbinol derivatives exhibited strongest neuroprotection against C2 ceramide-induced apoptosis. The results suggest that furopyrazole derivative of benzylindazole analogs can be developed as useful neuroprotectants against neurodegenerative diseases.
