Abstract
Two 5-HT1A antagonists, t-FCWAY and c-FCWAY, were developed as imaging agents for positron emission tomography (PET). In order to evaluate these compounds, hepatocytes from both human and rat were utilized to produce metabolites and LC-MS-MS was used to identify metabolites. These in vitro metabolism studies indicate that hydrolysis of the amide linkage is the major metabolism pathway for humans, whereas aromatic ring-oxidation is the major metabolism pathway for rat. The rat hepatocyte results correlate well with in vivo rat metabolism studies. Based on the structures of the metabolites, we have developed an extraction procedure to determine the concentration of the parent compound in plasma.
