Results are expressed as the mean of at least three experiments ± SEM.
Classification of the prediction to cross the BBB: CNS+, high BBB permeation predicted, with Pe (×10-6 cm s-1) >4.0; CNS−, low BBB permeation predicted, with Pe (×10-6 cm s-1) <2.0; CNS+/−, BBB permeation uncertain, with Pe (×10-6 cm s-1) from 4.0 to 2.0 [45].
BBB: Blood–brain barrier; PAMPA: Parallel artificial membrane permeability assay; Pe: Permeability coefficient; SEM: Standard error of the mean.
