Abstract: | The purpose of this study was to synthesize 6-1-(2-18F]fluoro-3-pyridyl)-5-methyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl]quinoline (18F]FPTQ, 18F]7a) and to evaluate its potential as a positron emission tomography ligand for imaging metabotropic glutamate receptor type 1 (mGluR1) in the rat brain. Compound 18F]7a was synthesized by 18F]fluorination of 6-1-(2-bromo-3-pyridyl)-5-methyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl]quinoline (7b) with potassium 18F]fluoride. At the end of synthesis, 1280-1830 MBq (n = 8) of 18F]7a was obtained with >98% radiochemical purity and 118-237 GBq/??mol specific activity using 3300-4000 MBq of 18F]F−. In vitro autoradiography showed that 18F]7a had high specific binding with mGluR1 in the rat brain. Biodistribution study using a dissection method and small-animal PET showed that 18F]7a had high uptake in the rat brain. The uptake of radioactivity in the cerebellum was reduced by unlabeled 7a and mGluR1-selective ligand JNJ-16259685 (2), indicating that 18F]7a had in vivo specific binding with mGluR1. Because of a low amount of radiolabeled metabolite present in the brain, 18F]7a may have a limiting potential for the in vivo imaging of mGluR1 by PET. |
