General description

Chrysamine G is a carboxylic acid derivative of Congo red.[1]

Biochem/physiol Actions

Chrysamine G can penetrate the blood-brain barrier. It is useful in quantifying cerebral amyloid β (Aβ) deposition in Alzheimer′s disease (AD) pathological studies.[1]
New probe for ß-amyloid aggregates.

Chrysamine G (CG), an analogue of Congo red, is known to bind in vitro to the beta-amyloid protein (Abeta 10-43) and to homogenates of several regions of the brain of Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients. We synthesised a conjugate of 2-(acetamido)-CG

Alzheimer's disease (AD) involves amyloid beta (Abeta) accumulation, oxidative damage, and inflammation, and risk is reduced with increased antioxidant and anti-inflammatory consumption. The phenolic yellow curry pigment curcumin has potent anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities and can suppress oxidative damage, inflammation

Neurobiology of aging, 16(4), 541-548 (1995-07-01)
Chrysamine-G (CG) is a carboxylic acid analogue of Congo red, a histologic dye which stains amyloid. CG binds to the beta-amyloid protein of Alzheimer's disease (AD) in vitro and partitions into the brain of normal mice. In this study, we
