Adenosine receptor (AR) radiotracers for positron emission tomography (PET) have provided knowledge on the in vivo biodistribution of ARs in the central nervous system (CNS), which is of therapeutic interest for various neuropsychiatric disorders. Additio

2-Aminopyridine-3,5-dicarbonitrile compounds were previously identified as mimetics of dominant-negative prion protein mutants and inhibit prion replication in cultured cells. Here, we report findings from a comprehensive structure-activity relationship study of the 6-aminopyridine-3,5-dicarbonitrile scaffold. We identify compounds with significantly improved bioactivity (approximately 40-fold) against replication of the infectious prion isoform (PrPSc) and suitable pharmacokinetic profiles to warrant evaluation in animal models of prion disease.
