Tramiprosate is a sulfated glycosaminoglycan mimetic that was reported to bind soluble Aβ and inhibit the interaction of Aβ with endogenous glycosaminoglycans, thereby preventing β-sheet formation. Conversely, tramiprosate was also reported to promote tau polymerization into fibrillar aggregates. It is also an analog of GABA that can act as a partial agonist of GABA_A receptors, as well as an antagonist at GABA_B receptors.

White Powder

Important gaba mimetic agent. It evokes neurological responses similar to those elicited by g-aminobutyric acid

ChEBI: 3-Aminopropanesulfonate is an organosulfonic acid.

Sulfated glycosaminoglycan (sGAG) mimetic that targets soluble amyloid β (A β ) and maintains A β in a non-fibrillar form. Decreases A β 42-induced neuronal death and inhibits amyloid deposition in vitro . Decreases brain amyloid plaque load by 30%, increases tau polymerization and is brain penetrant. Also a GABA analog that protects against the convulsant and cytotoxic activity of kainic acid in vivo .
