Metal chelating agents, flavonoids

The involvement of oxidative stress in AD has opened a new door for potential therapeutic targets. In this regard, several antioxidants are currently in clinical trials such as Idebenone, a-Lipoic acid, acetyl-L-carnitine (ALC), vitamin E, vitamin C, flavonoids, P-carotene, gingko biloba, and metal-chelating agents. Idebenone is a metabolic antioxidant and is normally synthesized as part of the mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation system. Improvements in clinical status after treatment with idebenone have been shown in a dose-dependent manner compared to placebo and tacrine (Thai et al., 2003). [Pg.618]

Phenolic acids and flavonoids can also act as chelating agents, complexing transition metals that are responsible of the initiation of peroxidative processes (Fenton and Haber-Weiss reactions). This property is much stronger in phenolics having a catechol, pyrogallol, or 3-hydroxy-4-carbonyl group [130]. [Pg.294]
