Abstract

Catalytic photooxygenation of amyloid-β is a leading therapeutic strategy for the treatment of Alzheimer disease; however, the limited tissue permeability of light hampers its clinical application. We here report an alternative catalytic sonooxygenation strategy to circumvent this problem. Amyloid-β aggregates were oxygenated by using rose bengal as a sonosensitizer under ultrasound irradiation. Structure–activity relationships revealed that xanthene-derived catalysts containing halogen atoms furnished a superior amyloid oxygenation activity.

      Although rose bengal has been reported to induce cancer cell death at 100 μM, the concentration used in this study was 10 μM, which is outside the range of toxicity. For the toxicity of rose bengal, see:

  • 17 Under the optimized conditions (5 W/cm2, 20 min), the temperature rose by approximately 15 °C. However, under attenuated conditions (e.g., 1 W/cm2, 10 min), the temperature rise was almost negligible, whereas the oxygenation yield did not significantly decrease. We therefore conclude that the contribution of temperature increase to the oxygenation reaction is minor.
