Abstract

See full text

Compounds that act to modulate the aggregation of natural .beta. amyloid peptides (.beta.-AP) are disclosed. The .beta. amyloid modulators of the invention can promote .beta.-AP aggregation or, more preferably, can inhibit natural .beta.-AP aggregation. Furthermore, the modulators are capable of altering natural .beta.-AP aggregation when the natural .beta.-APs are in a molar excess amount relative to the modulators. Pharmaceutical compositions comprising the compounds of the invention, and methods of altering natural .beta.-AP aggregation using the compounds of the invention, are also disclosed.
