“…As part of the development of this model, it was necessary to test it to make sure that DFK-Neu cells are able to respond to drug treatment. For this purpose, we used pyrrolylazine and indolylazine derivatives synthesized by us [ 13 , 14 ], which can induce accumulation of chaperones in cells and were shown to have a neuroprotective effect in models of secondary damage after TBI [ 8 ] and in Alzheimer’s disease [ 14 ]. DFK3-Neu cells were cultured for 24 h in the presence of PQ-29 (a pyrrolylazine derivative) and IA-50 (an indolylazine derivative) at concentrations of 0.5, 2, and 8 μM.…”
