Linalool is a neuroprotective monoterpene found in essential oils from aromatic plants. Linalool's effectiveness in AD animal models has been established previously, but its mechanisms of action remain unclear. Therefore, this study aims to investigate whether linalool binds directly to the amyloid beta (Aβ) fibrils to understand it's role in preventing neurodegeneration. The anti-aggregation ability of Linalool was determined using Dithiothreitol (DTT), and thermal aggregation assays followed by Thioflavin T (ThT) binding assay. AD animals were treated with Linalool, and Thioflavin T staining was used to check the binding of linalool to Aβ fibrils in rat brain tissue sections. Preliminary studies revealed the anti-aggregation potential of linalool under the thermal and chemical stimulus. Further, in ThT binding assay Linalool inhibited Aβ aggregation, binding directly to Aβ fibrils. The reduced fluorescence intensity of ThT in AD brain tissues following linalool administration, highlights its neuroprotective potential as a therapeutic agent for AD. Display omitted •Linalool (LI) inhibits amyloid beta (Aβ) fibril formation as observed through ThT binding assay.•LI directly binds to Aβ fibrils, reducing ThT fluorescence intensity in AD animal brain tissues.•The study provides evidence supporting LI as a promising candidate for AD therapy.
