FPTQ is novel and potent antagonist of mGluR1 (metabotropic glutamate receptor subtype 1) with IC50 of 6 nM and 1.4 nM for human and mouse mGluR1 respectively. It may be applied as a ligand for positron emission tomography to visualize the rat brain's metabotropic glutamate receptor type 1 (mGluR1). FPTQ exhibited high specific binding with mGluR1 in the rat brain, according to in vitro autoradiography. FPTQ had a high uptake in the rat brain, according to a biodistribution study that used small-animal PET and the dissection method. Unlabeled FPTQ and mGluR1-selective ligand JNJ-16259685 decreased the uptake of radioactivity in the cerebellum, suggesting that FPTQ had mGluR1-specific binding in vivo. Due to the brain's low concentration of radiolabeled metabolites, FPTQ may have limited use in mGluR1 in vivo PET imaging.

| ln Vitro |
FPTQ (0.5–10 μM) did not exhibit any cytotoxicity at 0.5, 1, 5, or 10 μM in RAW264.7 macrophage cells[2]. FPTQ (1–20 μM; 24 hours) decreases LPS-induced NO production at > 1 μM, and at 10 μM, FPTQ treatment has a 31% anti-oxidant effect in RAW264.7 macrophage cells[2]. FPTQ (1–20 μM; 24 hours) significantly reduces the levels of IL-1β and IL-6 expression induced by LPS. When FPTQ is added to RAW264.7 macrophage cells at a concentration of 10 μM, the mRNA expression of IL-1β and Il-6 is reduced by 27% and 44%, respectively[2]. |
| ln Vivo | FPTQ (5-20 μM) reduces the quantity of neutrophils that migrate to the site of amputation in zebrafish larvae by tail amputation. The quantity of neutrophils aggregating at the wound site in zebrafish using the tailfin wound method likewise declines in a dose-dependent manner[2]. The Tg(mpx:EGFP)i114 zebrafish larvae are used in an LPS-induced inflammation zebrafish model. The larvae are introduced to FPTQ treatment right away after an injection of LPS solution into their yolks. FPTQ (20 μM; 4 hours) has an anti-inflammatory effect in the early stages of inflammation and dramatically reduces fluorescent neutrophils following yolk injection[2]. |

Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (8.19 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 +5% Tween-80 + 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 25.0 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.  (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.) |
