Abstrakt: FAAH inhibition can indirectly enhance endocannabinoid signaling to therapeutic levels, effectively preventing or slowing its progression of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Hence, the search for effective dual FAAH/cholinesterase inhibitors is considerable need for disease-modifying therapies. To this aim, we designed, synthesized, and tested three series of natural phenol carbamates. The majority of carbamates proved to be potent on a single target, amongst them, compound D12 containing paeonol motif was identified as an effective dual BuChE/FAAH inhibitor, with well-balanced nanomolar activity (IC 50  = 81 and 400 nM for hBuChE and hFFAH, respectively). D12 possessed BBB penetrating ability, benign safety, neuroprotection and pseudo-irreversible BuChE inhibition (K d  = 2.11 μM, k 2  = 2.27 min -1 ), showing good drug-like properties. D12 also modulated the BV2 microglial polarization to inhibit neuroinflammation. In vivo study verified that D12 improved Aβ 1-41 -induced learning impairments in AD mouse model for both short- and long-term memory responses. Thus, the dual activity of D12 could lead to a potentially more effective treatment for the counteraction of AD progression.
