Synonyms: BRD 1158 | BRD-1158 | exmple 47 [WO2021050700] [2]
Compound class:
Synthetic organic
Comment: BRD1158 is a selective, fully reversible and brain-penetrant COX2 inhibitor [1-2]. It has a rapid target kon and koff rates which makes it a good candidate as a PET radiotracer to monitor enzyme dynamics in vivo. The radiotracer [11C]BRD1158 is particuarly suited for imaging in tissues (such as microglia) where basal COX2 expression is very low, and has demonstrated its in vivo imaging potential in rodent models that express human COX2 (including a mouse Huntington's disease model in which COX2 expression is elevated in disease-affected brain regions).
