LM11A-31 HCl,a non-peptide p75NTR (neurotrophin receptor p75) modulator, is an orally active and potent proNGF (nerve growth factor) antagonist,in preventing diabetes-induced BRB breakdown. Treating macular oedema, a leading cause of blindness in people with diabetes, may be made easier, safer, and less invasive by targeting p75NTR signalling with the oral bioavailable receptor modulator LM11A-31. A derivative of amino acid that has a high blood-brain barrier permeability and inhibits p75-mediated cell death is LM11A-31 dihydrochloride. M11A-31 dihydrochloride reverses cholinergic neurite dystrophy in mouse models of Alzheimer's disease that progress from a mid- to a late stage.

Biological Activity
| Targets | proNGF |
| ln Vivo |
LM11A-31 (oral gavage; 50 mg kg/day for 4 weeks) significantly reduces the build-up of proNGF and maintains the integrity of BRB[1]. LM11A-31 (orally; 50 or 75 mg/kg) given for three months beginning at 6–8 months of age prevents and/or reverses atrophy of basal forebrain cholinergic neurites and cortical dystrophic neurites in mid-stage male APPL/S mice[2]. |
| Animal Protocol |
Male C57BL/6 J mice 50 mg kg/day Oral gavage; for 4 weeks |
