Bioorg Med Chem Lett 2024; 102:129678. [PMID: 38408514 DOI: 10.1016/j.bmcl.2024.129678] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/10/2024] [Revised: 02/21/2024] [Accepted: 02/23/2024] [Indexed: 02/28/2024]
Abstract
The dopamine transporter (DAT) is closely related to a variety of neurological disorders including Parkinson's disease (PD) and other neurodegenerative diseases. In vivo imaging of DAT with radio-labelled tracers has become a powerful technique in related disorders. The radioiodine-labelled tropane derivative [123I]FP-CIT ([123I]1a) is widely used in clinical single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) imaging as a DAT imaging agent. To develop more metabolically stable DAT radioligands for accurate imaging, this work compared two novel deuterated tropane derivatives ([131I]1c-d) with non-deuterated tropane derivatives ([131I]1a-b). [131I]1a-d were obtained in high radiochemical purity (RCP) above 99 % with molar activities of 7.0-10.0 GBq/μmol. The [131I]1a and [131I]1c exhibited relatively higher affinity to DAT (Ki: 2.0-3.12 nM) than [131I]1b and [131I]1d. Biodistribution results showed that [131I]1c consistently exhibited a higher ratio of the target to non-target (striatum/cerebellum) than [131I]1a. Furthermore, metabolism studies indicated that the in vivo metabolic stability of [131I]1c was superior to that of [131I]1a. Ex vivo autoradiography showed that [131I]1c selectively localized on DAT-rich striatal regions and the specific signal could be blocked by DAT inhibitor. These results indicated that [131I]1c might be a potential probe for DAT SPECT imaging in the brain.

Bench to Bedside Development of [ 18F]Fluoromethyl-(1,2- 2H 4)choline ([ 18F]D4-FCH). Molecules 2023; 28:8018.

Abstract
Malignant transformation is characterised by aberrant phospholipid metabolism of cancers, associated with the upregulation of choline kinase alpha (CHKα). Due to the metabolic instability of choline radiotracers and the increasing use of late-imaging protocols, we developed a more stable choline radiotracer, [18F]fluoromethyl-[1,2-2H4]choline ([18F]D4-FCH). [18F]D4-FCH has improved protection against choline oxidase, the key choline catabolic enzyme, via a 1H/2D isotope effect, together with fluorine substitution. Due to the promising mechanistic and safety profiles of [18F]D4-FCH in vitro and preclinically, the radiotracer has transitioned to clinical development. [18F]D4-FCH is a safe positron emission tomography (PET) tracer, with a favourable radiation dosimetry profile for clinical imaging. [18F]D4-FCH PET/CT in lung and prostate cancers has shown highly heterogeneous intratumoral distribution and large lesion variability. Treatment with abiraterone or enzalutamide in metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer patients elicited mixed responses on PET at 12-16 weeks despite predominantly stable radiological appearances. The sum of the weighted tumour-to-background ratios (TBRs-wsum) was associated with the duration of survival.
