Abstract
Glycerol is one of the important biomass-derived feedstocks and the high-value utilizations of glycerol have attracted much attentions in recent years. Herein, we report a manganese catalyzed dehydrogenative coupling of glycerol with amines for the synthesis of substituted 2-methylquinoxalines, 2-ethylbenzimidazoles, and α-aminoketones without any external oxidant. In these reactions, NHC-based pincer manganese complex featuring a pyridine backbone displayed high catalytic activity and selectivity, in which hydrogen and water were produced as the only by-products using glycerol as a C3 synthon.

Abstract
The accumulation of amyloid fibrils is characteristic of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Parkinson's disease. Detecting these fibrils with fluorescent or radiolabelled ligands is one strategy for diagnosing and better understanding these diseases. A vast number of amyloid-binding ligands have been reported in the literature as a result. To obtain a better understanding of how amyloid ligands bind, we have compiled a database of 3457 experimental dissociation constants for 2076 unique amyloid-binding ligands. These ligands target Aβ, tau, or αSyn fibrils, as well as relevant biological samples including AD brain homogenates. From this database significant variation in the reported dissociation constants of ligands was found, possibly due to differences in the morphology of the fibrils being studied. Ligands were also found to bind to Aβ(1-40) and Aβ(1-42) fibrils with similar affinities, whereas a greater difference was found for binding to Aβ and tau or αSyn fibrils. Next, the binding of ligands to fibrils was shown to be largely limited by the hydrophobic effect. Some Aβ ligands do not fit into this hydrophobicity-limited model, suggesting that polar interactions can play an important role when binding to this target. Finally several binding site models were outlined for amyloid fibrils that describe what ligands target what binding sites. These models provide a foundation for interpreting and designing site-specific binding assays.

Abstract
α-Synuclein (α-syn) is an essential biomarker for synucleinopathies, including Parkinson's disease (PD), dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), and multiple system atrophy (MSA). The development of α-syn imaging probes is of great importance for understanding the pathogenesis mechanism and developing new therapies. In this study, we designed and synthesized a series of cyano-substituted indole derivatives and evaluated their potency to bind to α-syn fibrils by in vitro fibril binding assays. We carried out systematic structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies and obtained a promising candidate 51. The results showed that 51 bound to α-syn fibrils with the affinity of 17.4 ± 5.6 nM, and the biodistribution experiments in normal mice showed [125I]51 exhibited a moderate brain uptake of 3.57 ± 0.28% ID/g at 2 min after injection. In conclusion, the indole derivative [125I]51 showed initial potential as α-syn imaging probes, which needed further development.

Abstract
A method to detect and quantify aggregated α-synuclein (αSYN) fibrils in vivo would drastically impact the current understanding of multiple neurodegenerative diseases, revolutionizing their diagnosis and treatment. Several efforts have produced promising scaffolds, but a notable challenge has hampered the establishment of a clinically successful αSYN positron emission tomography (PET) tracer: the requirement of high selectivity over the other misfolded proteins amyloid β (Aβ) and tau. By designing and screening a library of 2-styrylbenzothiazoles based on the selective fluorescent probe RB1, this study aimed at developing a selective αSYN PET tracer. [3H]PiB competition binding assays identified PFSB (Ki = 25.4 ± 2.3 nM) and its less lipophilic analogue MFSB, which exhibited enhanced affinity to αSYN (Ki = 10.3 ± 4.7 nM) and preserved selectivity over Aβ. The two lead compounds were labeled with fluorine-18 and evaluated using in vitro autoradiography on human brain slices, where they demonstrated up to 4-fold increased specific binding in MSA cases compared to the corresponding control, reasonably reflecting selective binding to αSYN pathology. In vivo PET imaging showed [18F]MFSB successfully crosses the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and is taken up in the brain (SUV = 1.79 ± 0.02). Although its pharmacokinetic profile raises the need for additional structural optimization, [18F]MFSB represents a critical step forward in the development of a successful αSYN PET tracer by overcoming the major challenge of αSYN/Aβ selectivity.

Abstract
Lewy body diseases (LBD) are pathologically defined as the accumulation of Lewy bodies composed of an aggregation of α-synuclein (αSyn). In LBD, not only the sole aggregation of αSyn but also the co-aggregation of amyloidogenic proteins, such as amyloid-β (Aβ) and tau, has been reported. In this review, the pathophysiology of co-aggregation of αSyn, Aβ, and tau protein and the advancement in imaging and fluid biomarkers that can detect αSyn and co-occurring Aβ and/or tau pathologies are discussed. Additionally, the αSyn-targeted disease-modifying therapies in clinical trials are summarized.

Abstract
In the brains of patients with synucleinopathies such as Parkinson's disease, dementia with Lewy bodies, and multiple system atrophy, α-synuclein (α-syn) aggregates deposit abnormally to induce neurodegeneration, although the mechanism is unclear. Thus, in vivo imaging studies targeting α-syn aggregates have attracted much attention to guide medical intervention against synucleinopathy. In our previous study, a chalcone analogue, [125I]PHNP-3, functioned as a feasible probe in terms of α-syn binding in vitro; however, it did not migrate to the mouse brain, and further improvement of brain uptake was required. In the present study, we designed and synthesized two novel 18F-labeled chalcone analogues, [18F]FHCL-1 and [18F]FHCL-2, using a central nervous system multiparameter optimization (CNS MPO) algorithm with the aim of improving blood-brain barrier permeation in the mouse brain. Then, we evaluated their utility for in vivo imaging of α-syn aggregates using a mouse model. In the competitive inhibition assay, both chalcone analogues exhibited high binding affinity for α-syn aggregates (Ki = 2.6 and 3.4 nM, respectively), while no marked amyloid β (Aβ)-binding was observed. The 18F-labeling reaction was successfully performed. In a biodistribution experiment, brain uptake of both chalcone analogues in normal mice (2.09 and 2.40% injected dose/gram (% ID/g) at 2 min postinjection, respectively) was higher than that of [125I]PHNP-3, suggesting that the introduction of 18F into the chalcone analogue led to an improvement in brain uptake in mice while maintaining favorable binding ability for α-syn aggregates. Furthermore, in an ex vivo autoradiography experiment, [18F]FHCL-2 showed the feasibility of the detection of α-syn aggregates in the mouse brain in vivo. These preclinical studies demonstrated the validity of the design of α-syn-targeting probes based on the CNS MPO score and the possibility of in vivo imaging of α-syn aggregates in a mouse model using 18F-labeled chalcone analogues.

Abstract
Synucleinopathies are characterized by the deposition of α-synuclein (α-syn) aggregates before the onset of clinical symptoms. Therefore, in vivo imaging of α-syn may contribute to early diagnosis of these diseases and has attracted much attention in recent years. However, no clinically useful probes have been reported. In the present study, 16 quinoline/quinoxaline derivatives with different styryl and fluorine groups were evaluated in order to develop α-syn imaging probes. Among them, SQ3, which is a quinoline analogue with a p-(dimethylamino)styryl group and fluoroethoxy group at the 2- and 7- positions of the skeleton, displayed moderate selectivity for α-syn aggregates over β-amyloid (Aβ) aggregates (K i = 230 nM), while maintaining high binding affinity for α-syn aggregates (K i = 39.3 nM). In a biodistribution study, [18F]SQ3 exhibited high uptake (2.08% ID/g at 2 min after intravenous injection) into a normal mouse brain. Taken together, we demonstrate that [18F]SQ3 has basic properties as a lead compound for the development of a useful α-syn imaging probe.

Abstract
Along with the increase in life expectancy, a significant increase of people suffering from neurodegenerative diseases (ND) has been noticed. The second most common ND, after Alzheimer’s disease, is Parkinson’s disease (PD), which manifests itself with a number of motor and non-motor symptoms that hinder the patient’s life. Current therapies can only alleviate those symptoms and slow down the progression of the disease, but not effectively cure it. So now, in addition to understanding the mechanism and causes of PD, it is also important to find a powerful way of treatment. It has been proved that in the etiology and course of PD, the essential roles are played by dopamine (DA) (an important neurotransmitter), enzymes regulating its level (e.g., COMT, MAO), and oxidative stress leading to neuroinflammation. Chalcones, due to their “simple” structure and valuable biological properties are considered as promising candidates for treatment of ND, also including PD. Here, we provide a comprehensive review of chalcones and related structures as potential new therapeutics for cure and prevention of PD. For this purpose, three databases (Pubmed, Scopus and Web of Science) were searched to collect articles published during the last 5 years (January 2018–February 2022). Chalcones have been described as promising enzyme inhibitors (MAO B, COMT, AChE), α-synuclein imaging probes, showing anti-neuroinflammatory activity (inhibition of iNOS or activation of Nrf2 signaling), as well as antagonists of adenosine A1 and/or A2A receptors. This review focused on the structure–activity relationships of these compounds to determine how a particular substituent or its position in the chalcone ring(s) (ring A and/or B) affects biological activity.

Abstract
α-Synuclein (α-syn) aggregates are major components of pathological hallmarks observed in the human brain affected by neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's disease, dementia with Lewy bodies, and multiple system atrophy. It is known that α-syn aggregates are involved in the pathogenesis of these neurodegenerative diseases. However, detailed mechanisms have not been fully elucidated. Therefore, the development of radiolabeled imaging probes to detect α-syn aggregates in vivo may contribute to early diagnosis and pathophysiological elucidation of neurodegenerative diseases affected by α-syn aggregates. In the present study, we designed and synthesized four radioiodinated phenylbenzofuranone (PBF) derivatives: [123/125I]IDPBF-2, [123/125I]INPBF-2, [123/125I]IDPBF-3, and [123/125I]INPBF-3, as candidates for α-syn imaging probes. All four compounds exhibited high binding affinity for recombinant α-syn aggregates in an inhibition assay. However, brain uptake of all four compounds was insufficient to achieve α-syn imaging in vivo. Considering the results of this study, while further structural modifications are required to improve brain uptake, it is suggested that PBF derivatives show fundamental characteristics as α-syn imaging probes.
