Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by progressive neurodegeneration and cognitive decline. Evodiamine, a main component in Chinese medicine, was found to improve cognitive impairment in AD model mice based on several intensive studies. However, evodiamine has high cytotoxicity and poor bioactivity. In this study, several evodiamine derivatives were synthesized heterocyclic substitution and amide introduction and screened for cytotoxicity and antioxidant capacity. Under the same concentrations, compound was found to exhibit lower cytotoxicity and higher activity against HO and amyloid β oligomers (AβOs) than evodiamine and significantly improve the working memory and spatial memory of 3 x Tg and APP/PS1 AD mice. Subsequent RNA sequencing and pathway enrichment analysis showed that affected AD-related genes and the AMPK and insulin signaling pathways. Furthermore, we confirmed that recovered PI3K/AKT/GSK3β/Tau dysfunction and . In conclusion, represents a potential lead compound for AD therapy based on the recovery of PI3K/AKT/GSK3β pathway dysfunction.
