ABSTRACT
Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) are involved in various central nervous system functions and have also been implicated in several neurodegenerative disorders. The heteromeric α4ß2* and homomeric α7 are two major nAChR subtypes which have been studied in the brain using positron emission tomography (PET). Our comparative autoradiographic studies of the two receptor types in the mouse and rat brains show major differences in the thalamus (α4ß2* >> α7), hippocampus (α7 >> α4ß2*), and subiculum (α4ß2* >> α7). A relatively newer heteromeric α7ß2 nAChR subtype has been identified in the brain which may have a greater role in neurodegeneration. We report the development of KS7 (3-(2-(S)-azetidinylmethoxy)-5-(1,4-diaza-bicyclo[3.2.2]nonane)pyridine) which incorporates structural features of Nifzetidine (high affinity for α4ß2* nAChR) and ASEM (high affinity for α7 nAChR) in an effort to target α7 and ß2 subunits in α7ß2 nAChR. KS7 exhibited higher affinities (IC50 = 50 to 172 nM) for [3H]cytisine radiolabeled sites and weaker affinities (IC50 = 10 µM) for [125I]-α-bungarotoxin radiolabeled rat brain sites in several brain regions. The weaker affinity of KS7 to α7 nAChR may suggest lack of binding at the α7 subunit of α7ß2 nAChR. A radiolabeled derivative of KS7 may be required to identify any specific binding to brain regions suggested to contain α7ß2 nAChR.
