A new procedure for the synthesis of the key intermediate 17 has been developed in four steps (condensation, diazo reaction, hydrolysis, amidation) from 2-aminopyridine 18. The overall yield was increased from 18% to 31.6%. One of the key steps is using activated copper powder as a catalyst in several cycles. Finally, reduction of 17 with Zn dust completed the synthesis of TSPO imidazopyridine ligand 7 in 86% yield.展开更多

Microglia are the resident immune cells and the frontline defenders responsible for the immune response of the brain. Resting microglia possess a ramified morphology with numerous thin processes that continuously sample the environment. In response to inflammatory signals, microglia become activated and transform their morphology into a thick, amoeboid-like shape. Activated microglia proliferate, tolerate to sites of iniurv,展开更多
