Inhibition of LINGO1 as a therapeutic target to promote axonal regeneration and repair for neurological disorders.

ABSTRACT: The Central nervous system is blemished by the high incidence of neurodegenerative diseases, which is known to cause disfiguration of regeneration and repair of axonal growth. Recognition of proteins that act as agents of repressing such repair has become the norm to tackle these abominable conditions. One such protein is LINGO1 that act as a repressor for axonal growth. Being one of the critical causative agents of several neurodegenerative pathways. Consequently, its inhibition may tend to help the outcomes of regenerative technologies aiming to outweigh the symptoms of neurodegenerative diseases. For this objective, LINGO1 was targeted with pharmacophore analogs of Fasudil and Ibuprofen, as they are known to have a deterring effect against the concerned protein. 1-Tosyl-2-(chloromethyl)
