Mitochondrial and Antioxidant Activity as the Basis of the NeuroprotectiveEffect of Potential Multitarget Drugs for the Treatment of NeurodegenerativeDiseases

The combination of several pharmacophores in one molecule may not only result in the mere addition of the useful properties of each component, but may also give rise to new types of biological activity. The examples of the appearance of new properties in such multipharmacophore compounds, not inherent in the reference agents, discussed in our review, may be considered a prospective approach for creating a novel generation of neuroprotective agents.
