Fluoroethylnormemantine hydrochloride, a Memantine derivative, functions as an antagonist for the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor. It can also serve as a positron emission tomography (PET) tracer, specifically as [18F]-Fluoroethylnormemantine hydrochloride. Notably, this compound displays a range of effects, including anti-amnesic, neuroprotective, antidepressant-like, and fear-attenuating properties.
ONO-2952 is more selective for TSPO than other receptors, transporters, ion channels, and enzymes. ONO-2952 is a potent and selective translocator protein 18 kDa (TSPO) antagonist (Ki: 0.33-9.30 nM for rat and human TSPO). ONO-2952 has the potential for i
