We recently reported that the tetra(ethylene glycol) derivative of benzothiazole aniline, BTA-EG4, acts as an amyloid-binding small mol. that promotes dendritic spine d. and cognitive function in wild-type mice. This raised the possibility that BTA-EG4 may benefit the functional decline seen in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). In the present study, we directly tested whether BTA-EG4 improves dendritic spine d. and cognitive function in a well-established mouse model of AD carrying mutations in APP, PS1 and tau (APPswe;PS1M146V;tauP301L, 3xTg AD mice). We found that daily injections of BTA-EG4 for 2 wk improved dendritic spine d. and cognitive function of 3xTg AD mice in an age-dependent manner. Specifically, BTA-EG4 promoted both dendritic spine d. and morphol. alterations in cortical layers II/III and in the hippocampus at 6-10 mo of age compared to vehicle-injected mice. However, at 13-16 mo of age, only cortical spine d. was improved without changes in spine morphol. The changes in dendritic spine d. correlated with Ras activity, such that 6-10 mo old BTA-EG4 injected 3xTg AD mice had increased Ras activity in the cortex and hippocampus, while 13-16 mo old mice only trended toward an increase in Ras activity in the cortex. Finally, BTA-EG4 injected 3xTg AD mice at 6-10 mo of age showed improved learning and memory; however, only minimal improvement was observed at 13-16 mo of age. This behavioral improvement corresponds to a decrease in soluble Aβ 40 levels. Taken together, these findings suggest that BTA-EG4 may be beneficial in ameliorating the synaptic loss seen in early AD.
