Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative condition characterized by extracellular accumulation of amyloid-beta. Estrogen receptors (ERs) are widely recognized as mediators of neuroprotection from various insults. Recent research has highlighted the distinction between nuclear and non-nuclear ER activation mechanisms, positioning non-nuclear ERs as a safer option, devoid of the cardiovascular and cancer risks associated with nuclear ER activation. In this study, we aimed to confirm the neuroprotective potential of PaPE-1, a novel compound that preferentially activates non-nuc
