Traditional medicinal chemistry and drug discovery strategies have failed to succeed in finding an effective treatment. In this thesis entitled: “Modulation of the neurodegeneration with new multitarget approaches: design and synthesis of innovative compounds”, two new approaches for the treatment of these pathologies are proposed. The first approach is the modulation with small molecules of the pathology of TDP-43, a protein described as the main component of the aggregates present in the motor neur...
