Alzheimer's Disease

Part of the book series: Topics in Medicinal Chemistry ((TMC,volume 2))

Abstract

Glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK-3) has emerged as a prominent therapeutic target for intervention in several diseases including non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, Alzheimer's disease, stroke, bipolar disorder and affective disorders. In the present review we briefly summarise the properties of GSK-3, focusing primarily on the role of GSK-3 in Alzheimer's disease. Furthermore, we discuss the potential for therapeutic benefit of GSK-3 inhibitors.
