“…[4] Other redox-active compounds, including the non-neuroleptic phenothiazine methylene blue (MB) [methylthioninium chloride (MTC), Rember™, TRx-0014, TauRx Therapeutics, Singapore, Republic of Singapore] can also modulate cysteine oxidation when incubated in the absence of exogenous reducing agents. [7] In general, covalent mechanisms of tau-aggregation inhibition in AD are predicted to have low utility in vivo. [8] However, dimethylfumarate, an electrophile capable of reacting covalently with cysteine sulfhydryls, was approved for oral treatment of multiple sclerosis, [9] suggesting that electrophilic compounds acting through covalent inhibitory mechanisms can be useful therapeutic agents.…”
