Increased activity of efflux transporters, e.g., P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP), at the blood-brain barrier is a pathological hallmark of many neurological diseases, and the resulting multiple drug resistance represents a major clinical challenge. Noninvasive imaging of transporter activity can help to clarify the underlying mechanisms of drug resistance and facilitate diagnosis, patient stratification, and treatment monitoring. We have developed a metabolically activated radiotracer for functional imaging of P-gp/BCRP activity with positron emission tomography (PET). In preclinical studies, the tracer showed excellent initial brain uptake and clean conversion to the desired metabolite, although at a sluggish rate. Blocking with P-gp/BCRP modulators led to increased levels of brain radioactivity; however, dynamic PET did not show differential clearance rates between treatment and control groups. Our results provide proof-of-concept for development of prodrug tracers for imaging of P-gp/BCRP function in vivo but also highlight some challenges associated with this strategy.

In a wide search program toward new, efficient, and fast-acting antidepressant drugs, we have prepared series of new compounds having an (aryl)(aryloxy)methyl moiety linked directly or through a methylene chain to different substituted and unsubstituted cycles (isoquinoline, piperazine, piperidine, tetrahydropyran, or cyclopentane). These compounds have been evaluated for their affinities for serotonin (5-HT) transporter (SERT) and 5-HT1A and 5-HT2A receptors. Racemic mixtures of 4-[(aryl)(aryloxy)methyl]piperidine derivatives showed much higher affinity values for SERT than fluoxetine and resulted in lack of affinity for 5-HT 1A and 5-HT2A receptors. Some of these racemic mixtures were resolved to their enantiomers and tested for binding to norepinephrine (NE) transporter (NET), dopamine (DA) transporter (DAT), and α2 receptor. Several of these enantiomers [(-)-15b, (-)-15j, (-)-15t, (+)-15u] displayed a dual binding profile with affinities for SERT and NET with K i i = 1.9 and 13.5 nM, respectively), and further pharmacological characterization is in progress for its evaluation as a antidepressant.

Compound 1 (1-benzyl-3-methyl-4-[4-(4-fluorophenyl)-4- oxobutyl]piperazine), a synthetic intermediate identified as a potential atypical antipsychotic, was selected as the starting point for pharmacological improvement. From 1, sequential structural variations were conducted in order to improve its potency and oral bioavailability. These variations included a series of piperazine, ethanediamine, and piperidine derivatives. The piperidine series afforded some orally potent compounds in the inhibition of apomorphine-induced climbing and hyperactivity in mice, which are regarded as behavioral models predictive of antipsychotic efficacy. Further optimization of these structures led to the highly potent 7-[3-(1- piperidinyl)propoxy]chromenones. Inhibition of stereotypies and induction of catalepsy in rats at doses substantially higher than required for inhibition of climbing suggest an atypical antipsychotic profile, which is assumed to predict a reduced induction of extrapyramidal side effects in humans.
