C47H48N3NaO7S2

854.02

Rat IC50 = 10.1 nM

Human IC50 = 265 nM

It is a selective antagonist, but restrictedby its poor stability and less desirable pharmacokinetics properties, preventing their use for in vivo studies of the receptoruse for in vivo studies of the receptor

JNJ-54,175,446

C18H13ClF4N6O

440.78

Human IC50 = 8.46 nM

Rat IC50 = 8.81 nM

Mouse IC50 = 7.8 nM

A potent P2 × 7 antagonist with significant brain penetration and exhibiting dose-dependent P2 × 7 receptor occupancy in the hippocampus of rats and dogs, it has been shown to attenuate dexamphetamine-induced psychomotor hyperactivity and cognitive effects

[62]

JNJ-55,308,942

C17H12F5N7O

425.323

Human IC50 = 10 nM

Rat IC50 = 15 nM

JNJ-55,308,942 is orally bioavailable, treatment with JNJ-55,308,942 (30 mg/kg; p.o.) attenuates LPS-induced microglial activation in mice

A-804,598

C19H17N5

315.372

Human IC50 = 10.9 nM

Rat IC50 = 9.9 nM

Mouse IC50 = 8.9 nM

In differentiated THP-1 cells that expressed human P2 × 7 receptors, A-804,598 inhibited BzATP stimulated Yo-Pro uptake and release of IL-1β. In 1321N1 cells expressed recombinant rat P2 × 7 receptor, A 804,598 showed high affinity with Kd = 2.4 nM

C19H21ClF3NO2

C1811CH21ClF3NO2

386.824

Mouse IC50 = 24 ± 5.5 nM

Human IC50 = 158 ± 44 nM

It has a high affinity for P2 × 7R(Kd = 20.6 ± 1.7 nM), good in vivo stability and the ability to cross the blood-brain barrier, and PET tracers based on it are thought to be useful for detecting the exact role of microglia in CNS disease processes and their activation status
