Chrysamine G is a carboxylic acid derivative of Congo red.[1]
Actions biochimiques/physiologiques
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]

Heterozygous in frame duplications of the PHOX2B gene, leading to polyalanine (polyAla) expansions ranging from +5 to +13 residues of a 20-alanine stretch, have been identified in the vast majority of patients affected with Congenital Central Hypoventilation Syndrome (CCHS), a
Increasing evidence suggests that deposition of amyloid-beta (A beta) peptide leads to neurodegeneration in Alzheimer's disease. Congo red, a histologic dye that binds to amyloid has previously been shown to diminish the toxic effects of A beta in cell culture.

This study describes the synthesis and in vitro testing of small molecule probes that may eventually prove useful as markers of amyloid deposition in living patients. The prototype agent, Chrysamine G (CG), is a derivative of Congo red. CG binds

Huntington's disease (HD) is a late onset neurodegenerative disorder caused by a CAG/polyglutamine (polyQ) repeat expansion. PolyQ aggregates can be detected in the nuclei and processes of neurons in HD patients and mouse models prior to the onset of symptoms.

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
