RO6807936 as a novel positron emission tomography (PET) radiotracer for in vitro and in vivo visualization and quantification of beta‐site amyloid precursor protein cleaving enzyme (BACE1) in the rodent and baboon brain
The beta‐site amyloid precursor protein cleaving enzyme (BACE1) is responsible for initiating the generation of beta‐amyloid, the major constituent of amyloid plaques in Alzheimer's disease (AD). The purpose of this study was to develop a specific BACE1 radioligand for visualization of the distribution pattern and quantification of the BACE1 protein in the rodent and monkey brain both in vitro by autoradiography and in vivo by positron emission tomography (PET). The BACE1 inhibitor RO6807936 originating from an in‐house chemical drug optimization program was selected based on its PET tracer‐like physicochemical properties and a favorable pharmacokinetic profile. Saturation binding analysis of [3 H]RO6807936 revealed specific and high‐affinity binding ( K D = 2.9 nM) and a low B max value (4.3 nM) of the BACE1 protein in native rat brain membranes. [3 H]RO6807936 binding showed a ubiquitous distribution on rat brain slices in vitro with higher levels in the CA3 pyramidal cell layer and the granule cell layer of the hippocampus. In a next step, RO6807936 was successfully radiolabeled with carbon‐11 and showed acceptable uptake in the baboon brain as well as a widespread and rather homogeneous distribution consistent with rodent data. In vivo blockade studies with a specific BACE1 inhibitor reduced uptake of the tracer to homogenous levels across brain regions and demonstrated specificity of the signal. Our data warrant further profiling of this PET tracer candidate in humans to investigate BACE1 expression in normal individuals and those with AD and as an imaging biomarker for target occupancy studies in clinical drug trials..
