Abstrakt: Alzheimer's disease (AD), the most common type of dementia among older adults, is a chronic neurodegenerative pathology that causes a progressive loss of cognitive functioning with a decline of rational skills. It is well known that AD is multifactorial, so there are many different pharmacological targets that can be pursued. According to estimates from the World Health Organization (WHO), 18 million individuals worldwide suffer from AD. Major initiatives to identify risk factors, enhance care giving, and conduct basic research to delay the beginning of AD were started by the USA, France, Germany, France, and various other nations. Widely recognized as a key player in the development and subsequent progression of AD pathogenesis, glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3) controls a number of crucial targets associated with neuronal degeneration. GSK-3 inhibition has been linked to reduced tau hyperphosphorylation, β-amyloid formation, and neuroprotective benefits in Alzheimer's disease. Lithium, the very first inhibitor of GSK-3β that was used therapeutically, has been successfully used for many years with remarkable results. A great variety of structurally varied strong GSK-3β blockers have been identified in recent years. The purpose of this thorough review is to cover the biological and structural elements of glycogen synthase kinase, as well as the medicinal chemistry aspects of GSK inhibitors that have been produced in recent years.
