A series of N-terminus benzamides of glycine-based symmetric peptides, linked to m-xylylenediamine and 3,4'-oxydianiline spacers, were prepared and tested as inhibitors of beta-amyloid peptide Abeta(1-40) aggregation in vitro. Compounds with good anti-aggregating activity were detected. Polyphenolic amides showed the highest anti-aggregating activity, with IC(50) values in the micromolar range. Structure-activity relationships suggested that pi-pi stacking and hydrogen-bonding interactions play a key role in the inhibition of Abeta(1-40) self-assembly leading to amyloid fibrils.
