All of the experiments and procedures in this study were approved by the Laurentian University Animal Care Committee. Male Sprague-Dawley rats (n = 106, 434±60 gms) were obtained from Charles River Laboratories (Senneville, QC) and were housed and fed a 22/5 rodent diet (Envigo, WI, USA) according to Standard Operating Procedures and Policies for the Housing and Environmental Enrichment of Rodents at the Laurentian University Animal Care Facility.
In Vivo and Ex Vivo Studies of Rodents and Primates
For mouse ex vivo occupancy and ex vivo K i studies, male CD1 mice (approximately 30 g; Charles River, Margate, Kent) were used. All experiments were performed in accordance with UK Home Office regulations and in line with the Animals Scientific Procedures Act For rat ex vivo RO studies, male Sprague-Dawley rats (250-300 g; Charles River) were used. For rat PET imaging, male Sprague-Dawley rats (350-450 g; Charles River) were used. Both experiments were performed in accordance with UK Home Office regulation and in line with the Animals Scientific Procedures Act and transposed EU Directive 2016/63/EU.
Cynomolgus monkey PET imaging was performed on two adult cynomolgus monkeys (Macaca fascicularis), one female (8 years old) and one male (16 years old). This study was conducted in full compliance with Yale University's Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee policies and procedures, which follow the recommendations of The Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals.

Rat Hepatic Index Study
Male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats aged 8 weeks, weighing 150–200 g, were purchased from the Charles River Laboratories Italia, SRL (Lecco, Italia). All animals were housed under standard laboratory conditions in an animal holding room located at the Department of Biological Sciences and Technologies (Di.S.Te.B.A.), University of Salento (certificate no.48/2004-A). The acclimatization period was not less than one week after delivery. They were fed with standard chow diet and water was provided ad libitum. They were housed in small groups in plastic-bottomed cages containing sawdust. They were bred in a temperature-controlled environment (20 ± 2 °C) with 12 h of light/dark cycles (light from 6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.). At specific time points, they were deeply anesthetized using isoflurane (drop jar method by placing an impermeable mesh grid over the cotton/gauze) and sacrificed through rapid dislocation of the cervical spine.
Body weight, liver weight and Hepatic Index (HI) (percentage of liver weight with respect to body mass) were monitored.
About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
