Recent studies report that anticholinesterase drugs reduce circulating Ab deposition in several dementia types, including AD [159]. Evidence from clinical trials [160], noninvasive functional imaging [161] and basic science research suggest that cholinesterase inhibitors might alter APP processing and therefore provide some degree of neuroprotection [162,163] PubMed:18986241

Recently, the novel non-selective antihistamine dimebon (2,3,4,5-tetrahydro2,8-dimethyl-5–2[-6methyl 3-pyridnyl)ethyl]-1H-pyrido[4,3-b] indole) was shown to inhibit BChE and AChE, block the NMDA receptor signaling pathway, inhibit mitochondrial permeability and provide neuroprotective effects in models of AD [194].
