Description

A research team reports tests of a new compound called JRM-28 in a 2024 brain study. JRM-28 blocks HDAC2, an enzyme that can turn down genes tied to learning and memory. The team studied nerve cells from the hippocampus, a brain area that helps form memories. Their interest comes from Alzheimer's disease, where memory and thinking fade over time.

In cell tests, the compound raised spine density and strengthened signals between nerve cells. It also switched on CREB, a protein that turns on genes tied to flexible, lasting connections. The same effects showed up in human nerve cells grown from stem cells of Alzheimer's patients. The authors present the compound as a lead worth more study, not a proven treatment.
