BF3-Dm-UCB-J is a fluorine-18 labeled derivative of UCB-J, specifically designed for positron emission tomography (PET) imaging of synaptic density. It binds to the synaptic vesicle glycoprotein 2A (SV2A), allowing for high-resolution imaging of synapses in the brain. This compound is crucial in research on neurodegenerative diseases and psychiatric disorders, as it provides detailed insights into synaptic changes associated with conditions like Alzheimer’s, epilepsy, and schizophrenia. BF3-Dm-UCB-J aids in tracking disease progression and evaluating therapeutic strategies.
