11C-GSK1482160, has been evaluated in vitro, in vivo in both mice and EAE rat models (Han et al., 2017), have human data presented at conference [108, 110]
11C-GSK1482160 has been characterised in a LPS model of inflammation where VT was significantly increased upon treatment, with 97% of the increased signal displaced in LPS and homologous block-treated animals [111]. The in vivo selectivity profile for 11C-GSK1482160 is currently lacking heterologous P2X7 blocking data. In vitro response to P2X7-expressing cells and correlation to expression of P2X7 and activated microglia in an ex vivo multiple sclerosis rodent model both increase confidence in selectivity [111,112], but are not in themselves proof of P2X7 binding in vivo.

a second generation CSF1R PET in development by J&J : potential that this new ligand is undergoing FiH testing

  • showed a high potency to inhibit human CSF1R kinase activity (IC50 27.9 nM) by ATP-competitive assay

    (baseline:) in three rats, brain radioactivity peaked at 2 min (SUV 1.2), followed by a rapid washout (Figure 2a, 2b). The time activity curves showed the highest activity in the cerebellum and the lowest in the cingulate at 60 min after injection. The peak brain uptake of [11C]NCGG401 appeared to be slightly higher than the reported brain uptake of [11C]BLZ945 (3% ID/g in mice20), although this increased uptake could be due to species differences. However, [11C]NCGG401 was still be a substrate of efflux transporters because the peak brain uptake was increased by ~30% and ~50% after administration of cyclosporine A (25 and 50 mg/kg) and tariquidar (15 mg/kg), respectively (Supplementary figure S4).
  • *blocking : pre-administration of NCGG401 (1.0 mg/kg) starting at 30 min before the tracer injection over 10 min. Pre-administration of NCGG401 did not affect the apparent rate of tracer washout (Figure 2c), not showing SB! (실패! 원인해석: The blocking agents need to be administered well before the bolus injection of the tracer so that receptor occupancy by cold blocking agents is relatively stable.)
  • ARG: The radioactivity was blocked by 10 µM NCGG401 showing decreased radioactivity by 24% (작다!) in the brain tissue samples from rat and 20% in the samples from AD patients, respectively. These findings suggest that [11C]NCGG401 specifically binds to the rat brain and human hippocampus
Link to microglianonspecific to migroglia, reactive glial cells. Due to limitations of TSPO-targeted PET, including a lack of cell type specificit11C-SMW139, currently being evaluated in PD patients (www.clinicaltrialsregister.eu, EudraCT Number: 2018-000405-23, https://www.clinicaltrialsregister.eu/ctr-search/trial/2018-000405-23/FI).

It was proposed as potential marker of M1 microglia, however, there is little evidence to support lack of expression of P2X7 on M2 subpopulation, with multiple studies contradicting this hypothesis [267, 268].
The gene encoding the cognate ligand for CSF1R, CSF1, is up-regulated in stage 2 disease-associated microglia (DAM),
limitationA third issue is that TSPO presence reflects a broader inflammatory state since TSPO is also expressed to a lesser extent on astrocytes and on peripheral immune cells in the brain if the BBB is broken.
Fourth, current TSPO tracers bind to both the M1 and M2 phenotypes of activated microglia
Issue with cell-specific expression (expressed peripherally & in microglia, astrocytes, and Schwann cells in the CNS. P2X7 receptor is mainly expressed in microglia cells but its expression level is low in astrocytes and some neurons [20].(De Lucia, 2016 #1790) Although a report recently suggested CSF1R is expressed and functions in neurons (Luo et al. 2013), we observed that CSF1R-modulatory approaches are specific for microglia, and found no evidence that the receptor is expressed either by neurons or astrocytes, supporting previously reported data (Erblich et al. 2011; Gomez-Nicola et al. 2013; Sasmono et al. 2003).

{Van Weehaeghe, 2019 #1793}
2ND recent study in a rat model of neuroinflammation using the 18F analogue [18F]JNJ64413739 showed that P2X7R is involved in early microglial activation. The highest signal was observed 2-3 days after LPS injection, after which this effect disappeared. Moreover, increased uptake of [18F]JNJ64413739 was shown to correspond with increased Iba1 staining, a microglial marker, indicating that P2X7R radioligands are probably able to visualize microglial activation [23].
