inhibitors were studied in vitro through CDK5 three inhibitors showed reduction in CDK5
kinase assay inhibition and the best of 8 hyper-activity as well as the least cell toxicity.
compounds were selected for further studies. The inhibitors will be further studied in vivo by
The aim of these studies is to identify inhibitors treatment in T2D mice models and its rescue in
of CDK5 deregulation or hyperactivity. Next cognitive impairment through behavioral
level functional screening was performed, and studies.
