assays, 31 showed strong effects in the prevention assay only, and 25 showed stronger effects in the post-catalysis/reversal assay. Of the drugs that were effective in both assays, 38 were also blood-brain-barrier (BBB) permeable. Conclusions: We have selected the 38 BBB permeable candidate drugs capable of both preventing and inhibiting ApoE4-mediated catalysis of Ab oligomer/filament formation for further investigation using both an induced pluripotent stem cell-cerebral organoid model system and TgF344-AD rats to inform future clinical trials. This ApoE-dependent approach to AD drug discovery may identify drugs that are effective independent of, or complementary to, other therapies currently under investigation.
