Identification of positron emission tomography ligands for NPY Y5 receptors in the brain

Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2009 Sep 15;19(18):5436-9. doi: 10.1016/j.bmcl.2009.07.103. Epub 2009 Jul 25.

Abstract

A series of trans-3-oxospiro[(aza)isobenzofuran-1(3H),1'-cyclohexane]-4'-carboxamide derivatives were synthesized and profiled for NPY Y5 binding affinity, brain and CSF penetrability in rats, and susceptibility to human and mouse P-glycoprotein transporters in order to develop a PET ligand. Compound 12b exhibited an acceptable profile for a PET ligand, and [(11)C]12b was successfully utilized in clinical settings as a Y5 PET ligand.
