Janssen B, Vugts D, Wilkinson S, Ory D, Chalon S, Hoozemans J, et al.
Sci Rep . 2018 Apr; 8(1):6580. PMID: 29700413
The P2X receptor plays a significant role in microglial activation, and as a potential drug target, the P2X receptor is also an interesting target in positron emission tomography. The current...

Wilkinson S, Barron M, OBrien-Brown J, Janssen B, Stokes L, Werry E, et al.
ACS Chem Neurosci . 2017 Aug; 8(11):2374-2380. PMID: 28841278
Adamantanyl benzamide 1 was identified as a potent P2XR antagonist but failed to progress further due to poor metabolic stability. We describe the synthesis and SAR of a series of...

Reekie T, Wilkinson S, Law V, Hibbs D, Ong J, Kassiou M
Org Biomol Chem . 2016 Dec; 15(3):576-580. PMID: 27991628
Preparation of N-(indol-2-yl)amides and N-(indol-3-yl)amides are scarce in the scientific literature due to unstable intermediates impeding current reported syntheses. We have employed cheap and readily available substrates in the Curtius...

ACS Chem Neurosci . 2013 Apr; 4(7):1081-92. PMID: 23551277
Two novel adamantane derivatives, adamantan-1-yl(1-pentyl-1H-indol-3-yl)methanone (AB-001) and N-(adamtan-1-yl)-1-pentyl-1H-indole-3-carboxamide (SDB-001), were recently identified as cannabimimetic indoles of abuse. Conflicting anecdotal reports of the psychoactivity of AB-001 in humans, and a complete...
