| Targets |
Tau tracer 2 targets Tau protein aggregates, which are a hallmark of several neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease. It binds to these aggregates with high affinity and specificity, allowing for their detection and visualization using PET imaging. This makes it a valuable tool for diagnosing tauopathies and monitoring disease progression.

|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
Using Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging, Tau tracer 2 (compound F-3a) can be used to selectively detect Tau aggregate-associated illnesses and abnormalities, such as Alzheimer's disease and other tauopathies[1].
In vitro, Tau tracer 2 demonstrates high binding affinity and selectivity for Tau protein aggregates. Its ability to bind to Tau aggregates is assessed using binding assays with synthetic Tau fibrils or brain homogenates from tauopathy patients. The compound shows minimal binding to amyloid-beta plaques, indicating good selectivity for Tau over other pathological protein aggregates. |
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, Tau tracer 2 (compound F-3a) can be used to selectively detect Tau aggregate-associated illnesses and abnormalities in living subjects using PET imaging. It has been evaluated in preclinical and clinical studies for its ability to image Tau pathology in the brain. The tracer shows good brain penetration and specific binding to Tau aggregates, making it a promising diagnostic tool.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
The in vitro binding assay for Tau tracer 2 typically involves measuring its affinity for Tau protein aggregates. This is done using radioligand binding assays with synthetic Tau fibrils or brain tissue homogenates. The compound's selectivity for Tau over other proteins, such as amyloid-beta, is also assessed. These assays are crucial for confirming its specificity.
|
| Cell Assay |
Cellular assays for Tau tracer 2 are not typically performed, as its primary application is as an imaging agent. Instead, binding studies are conducted using Tau protein aggregates in cell-free systems or brain tissue. The compound's ability to cross the blood-brain barrier is assessed using in vitro models of the blood-brain barrier.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal protocols for Tau tracer 2 involve intravenous administration of the radiolabeled compound to animal models of tauopathy, such as transgenic mice expressing human Tau. PET imaging is performed to visualize Tau aggregates in the brain. The tracer's biodistribution and specificity are evaluated by ex vivo autoradiography and brain homogenate analysis.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Pharmacokinetic (PK) properties of Tau tracer 2 are typical of small-molecule PET tracers. It is designed to have good brain penetration and rapid clearance from non-target tissues. The compound is administered intravenously, and its distribution is assessed by PET imaging. Its half-life and metabolic stability are optimized for imaging applications.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Toxicity data for Tau tracer 2 are limited. As an imaging agent, it is administered at sub-pharmacological doses, minimizing the risk of toxicity. Standard toxicological assessments have been conducted to support its use in clinical PET imaging. The compound is intended for research and diagnostic use only.

Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 1.67 mg/mL (6.32 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 16.7 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 1.67 mg/mL (6.32 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 16.7 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly. Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution. View More

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
