| Bioactivity | THK-523 has demonstrated its high affinity and selectivity for tau pathology both in vitro and in vivo. 18F-THK523 is a potent tau imaging radiotracer. 18F-THK523 is a potent in vivo tau imaging ligand for Alzheimer's disease[1]. |
| In Vivo | THK-523 crosses the blood–brain barrier in mice and the in vivo retention rate in the brain of Tau transgenic mice increased[1]. Animal Model: |
