Abstract
Programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) is a type 1 transmembrane immunosuppressive protein that is expressed on a wide range of cell types, including cancer cells. Anti-PD-L1 antibodies have revolutionized cancer therapy and have led to improved outcomes for subsets of cancer patients, including triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) patients. As a result, PET imaging of PD-L1 protein expression in cancer patients has been explored for noninvasive detection of PD-L1 expressing tumors as well as monitoring response to anti-PD-L1 immune checkpoint therapy. Previous studies have indicated that the in vivo stability and in vivo target detection of antibody-based radio-conjugates can be dramatically affected by the chelator used. These reports demonstrated that the chelator HOPO diminishes 89Zr de-chelation compared to DFO. Herein, we report an improved HOPO synthesis and evaluated a series of novel analogues for thermal stability, serum stability, PD-L1-specific binding using the BT-549 TNBC cell line, PET imaging in vivo, as well as biodistribution of 89Zr-labeled anti-PD-L1 antibodies in BT-549 xenograft murine models. A new chelator, C5HOPO, demonstrated high stability in vitro and afforded effective PD-L1 targeting in vivovia immuno-PET. These results demonstrated that an improved HOPO chelator is an effective chelating agent that can be utilized to image therapeutically relevant targets in vivo.

Abstract
Radiolabelled lipophilic cations can be used to non-invasively report on mitochondrial dysfunction in diseases such as cardiovascular disease, cardiotoxicity and cancer. Several such lipophilic cations are currently used clinically to map myocardial perfusion using SPECT imaging. Since PET offers significant advantages over SPECT in terms of sensitivity, resolution and the capacity for dynamic imaging to allow pharmacokinetic modelling, we have synthesised and radiolabelled a series of NODAGA-based radiotracers, with triarylphosphonium-functionalisation, with gallium-68 to develop PET-compatible cationic complexes. To evaluate their capacity to report upon mitochondrial membrane potential, we assessed their pharmacokinetic profiles in isolated perfused rat hearts before and after mitochondrial depolarisation with the ionophore CCCP. All three tracers radiolabel with over 96% RCY, with log D7.4 values above -0.4 observed for the most lipophilic example of this family of radiotracers. The candidate tracer [68Ga]Ga4c exhibited non-preferential uptake in healthy cardiac tissue over CCCP-infused cardiac tissue. While this approach does show promise, the lipophilicity of this family of probes needs improving in order for them to be effective cardiac imaging agents.

Development of Dual Receptor Enhanced Pre-Targeting Strategy-A Novel Promising Technology for Immuno-Positron Emission Tomography Imaging. ADVANCED THERAPEUTICS 2021; 4:2100110.

Abstract
PET imaging has become an important diagnostic tool in the era of precise medicine. Various pre-targeting systems have been reported to address limitations associated with traditional immuno-PET. However, the application of these mono-receptor based pre-targeting (MRPT) strategies is limited to non-internalizable antibodies, and the tumor uptake is usually much lower than that in the corresponding immuno-PET. To circumvent these limitations, we develop the first Dual-Receptor Pre-Targeting (DRPT) system through entrapping the tumor-receptor-specific radioligand by the pre-administered antibody. Besides the similar ligation pathway happens in MRPT, incorporation of a tumor-receptor-specific peptide into the radioligand in DRPT enhances both concentration and retention of the radioligand on tumor, promoting its ligation with pre-administered mAb on cell-surface and/or internalized into tumor-cells. In this study, 64Cu based DRPT shows superior performance over corresponding MRPT and immuno-PET using internalizable antibodies. Besides, the compatibility of DRPT with short-lived and generator-produced 68Ga is demonstrated, leveraging its advantage in reducing radio-dose exposure. Furthermore, the feasibility of reducing the amount of the pre-administered antibody is confirmed, indicating the cost saving potential of DRPT. In summary, synergizing advantages of dual-receptor targeting and pre-targeting, we expect that this DRPT strategy can become a breakthrough technology in the field of antibody-based molecular imaging.

Abstract
18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) and 18F-sodium fluoride (18F-NaF) are front-runners in PET. However, these tracers have limitations in the imaging of diseases in the heart. A multitude of other radiotracers have been identified as potentially useful PET agents in the identification of cardiovascular disease. This critical review examines recent studies with the use of non-18F-FDG/18F-NaF radiotracers in the identification and surveillance of cardiovascular diseases. We highlight the need for further investigation into alternative PET radiotracers to demonstrate their clinical value in the management of these pathologies.

Abstract
The synthesis of two new hexadentate potentially tetra-anionic acyclic chelators, an N2O4-donor bis(semicarbazone) (H4bsc) and an N2O2S2-donor bis(thiosemicarbazone) (H4btsc), is described. Coordination reactions of the ligands with gallium and indium precursors were investigated and yielded the complexes [Ga(Hbsc)] (1) and [In(Hbtsc)] (2), respectively. Ligands and complexes structures were confirmed by several techniques, including FTIR, NMR (1H, 13C, COSY, HSQC), ESI(+)-MS and single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The radioactive congeners [67Ga(Hbsc)] (1*) and [111In(Hbtsc)] (2*) were also synthesized and their radiolabeling yield and radiochemical purity were certified by HPLC and ITLC analyses. Biodistribution assays in groups of CD-1 mice showed a high uptake of both radiocomplexes in liver and intestine where 1* presented higher retention. In vitro and in vivo assays revealed higher stability of 1* compared with 2*, namely in the blood. The results suggest that radiocomplex 1* is a candidate for further investigation as it could be prepared in high yields (>95%), at low temperature (20-25 °C) and at fast reaction time (15 min), which are very desirable synthesis conditions for potential new radiopharmaceuticals.

Abstract
Purpose of Review Currently, cardiotoxicity is monitored through echocardiography or multigated acquisition scanning and is defined as 10% or higher LVEF reduction. The latter stage may represent irreversible myocardium injury and limits modification of therapeutic paradigms at earliest stages. To stratify patients for anthracycline-related heart failure, highly sensitive and molecularly specific probes capable of interrogating cardiac damage at the subcellular levels have been sought. Recent Findings PET tracers may provide noninvasive assessment of earliest changes within myocardium. These tracers are at nascent stages of development and belong primarily to (a) mitochondrial potential-targeted and (b) general ROS (reactive oxygen species)-targeted radiotracers. Given that electrochemical gradient changes at the mitochondrial membrane represent an upstream, and earliest event before triggering the production of the ROS and caspase activity in a biochemical cascade, the former category might offer interrogation of cardiotoxicity at earliest stages exemplified by PET imaging, using 18F-Mitophos and 68Ga-Galmydar in rodent models. Summary Both categories of radiotracers may provide tools for monitoring chemotherapy-induced cardiotoxicity and interrogating therapeutic efficacy of cardio-protectants.

Abstract
Metallic radionuclides have been instrumental in the field of nuclear imaging for over half a century. While recent years have played witness to a dramatic rise in the use of radiometals as labels for chelator-bearing biomolecules, imaging agents based solely on coordination compounds of radiometals have long played a critical role in the discipline as well. In this work, we seek to provide a brief overview of metal complex-based radiopharmaceuticals for positron emission tomography (PET) and single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT). More specifically, we have focused on imaging agents in which the metal complex itself rather than a pendant biomolecule or targeting moiety is responsible for the in vivo behavior of the tracer. This family of compounds contains metal complexes based on an array of different nuclides as well as probes that have been used for the imaging of a variety of pathologies, including infection, inflammation, cancer, and heart disease. Indeed, two of the defining traits of transition metal complexes-modularity and redox chemistry-have both been creatively leveraged in the development of imaging agents. In light of our audience, particular attention is paid to structure and mechanism, though clinical data is addressed as well. Ultimately, it is our hope that this review will not only educate readers about some of the seminal work performed in this space over the last 30 years but also spur renewed interest in the creation of radiopharmaceuticals based on small metal complexes.

Abstract
Objective:
Recent gallium-68 labeled peptides are of increasing interest in PET imaging in
nuclear medicine. Somakit TOC® is a radiopharmaceutical kit registered in the European Union for the
preparation of [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-TOC used for the diagnosis of neuroendocrine tumors. Development
of a labeling process using a synthesizer is particularly interesting for the quality and reproducibility of
the final product although only manual processes are described in the Summary of Product (SmPC) of
the registered product. The aim of the present study was therefore to evaluate the feasibility and value
of using an automated synthesizer for the preparation of [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-TOC according to the SmPC
of the Somakit TOC®.
Methods:
Three methods of preparation were compared; each followed the SmPC of the Somakit
TOC®. Over time, overheads, and overexposure were evaluated for each method.
Results:
Mean±SD preparation time was 26.2±0.3 minutes for the manual method, 28±0.5 minutes for
the semi-automated, and 40.3±0.2 minutes for the automated method. Overcost of the semi-automated
method is 0.25€ per preparation for consumables and from 0.58€ to 0.92€ for personnel costs according
to the operator (respectively, technician or pharmacist). For the automated method, overcost is 70€
for consumables and from 4.06€ to 6.44€ for personnel. For the manual method, extremity exposure
was 0.425mSv for the right finger, and 0.350mSv for the left finger; for both the semi-automated and
automated method extremity exposure were below the limit of quantification.
Conclusion:
The present study reports for the first time both the feasibility of using a [68Ga]-
radiopharmaceutical kit with a synthesizer and the limits for the development of a fully automated
process.

Abstract
Curcuminoids (CURs), a series of derivatives in turmeric (Curcuma longa), are commonly discovered to control the deterioration of cancers. However, the physiochemical properties and the original side effects of many CURs complexes put barriers in their medical applications. To address them, the investigation of metal-based complexes with CURs is in progress. The complexes were summarized according to articles in recent years. The results showed that the complexes improved the physicochemical properties or therapeutic performances compared with pure CURs. Further, it is possible for the novel complexes to be applied in chemical detecting, paramagnetic-luminescent and bio-imaging fields. Therefore, the formation of the metal-based CURs complexes (MBCCs) is beneficial for the development of CURs especially in medical fields.

Abstract
Background Cancer patients undergoing Doxorubicin (DOX) treatment are susceptible to acute and chronic cardiac anomalies, including aberrant arrhythmias, ventricular dysfunction, and heart failure. To stratify patients at high risk for DOX -related heart failure (CHF), diagnostic techniques have been sought. While echocardiography is used for monitoring LVEF and LV volumes due to its wide-availability and cost-efficiency, it may not identify early stages of the initiation of DOX-induced systolic heart failure. To address these limitations, PET tracers could also provide noninvasive assessment of early and reversible metabolic changes of the myocardium. Objective Herein, we report a preliminary investigation of 68Ga-Galmydar potential to monitor Dox-induced cardiomyopathy in vivo, ex vivo, and in cellulo employing both nuclear- and optical imaging. Methods and results To assess 68Ga-Galmydar ability for monitoring DOX-induced cardiomyopathy, microPET imaging was performed 5 d post treatment of rats either with a single dose of DOX (15 mg/kg) or vehicle as a control (saline) and images were co-registered for anatomical reference using CT. Following tail-vein injection of the radiotracer in rats at 60 min, micro-PET/CT static scan (10 min acquisition), 68Ga-Galmydar demonstrated 1.91-fold lower uptake in hearts of DOX-treated (standard uptake value; SUV: 0.92, n = 3) rats compared with their vehicle treated (SUV: 1.76, n = 3) control counterparts. For correlation of PET imaging data, post-imaging quantitative biodistribution studies were also performed, wherein excised organs were counted for γ activity, and normalized to injected dose. The post imaging pharmacokinetic data also demonstrated heart uptake values of 2.0 fold lower for DOX treated rats(%ID/g; DOX: 0.44 ± 0.1, n = 3) compared to their vehicle-treated controls (%ID/g; Control: 0.89 ± 0.03, n = 3, p = 0.04). Employing the fluorescent traits of Galmydar, live cell fluorescence imaging indicated a gradual decrease in uptake and retention of Galmydar within mitochondria of H9c2 cells following DOX-treatment, while indicating dose-dependent and time-dependent uptake profiles. Following depolarization of electronegative transmembrane gradients at the mitochondrial membrane, the uptake of the probe was decreased in H9c2 cells, and the uptake profiles were found to be identical, using both fluorescence and radiotracer bioassays. Finally, the decreased uptake of the metalloprobe in H9c2 cells also correlated with caspase-3 expression resulting from DOX-induced cardiotoxicity and cell death. Conclusions 68Ga-Galmydar could provide a noninvasive assessment of DOX-related and likely reversible metabolic changes at earliest stages. Further studies with other chemotherapeutics (potentially capable of inducing cardiomyopathy) are underway.

Abstract
Malignant tumors are a major cause of death. The lack of methods that provide an early diagnosis and adequate treatment of cancers is the main obstacle to precision medicine. The C-X-C chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4) is overexpressed in various tumors and plays a key role in tumor pathogenesis. Therefore, CXCR4-targeted molecular imaging can quickly and accurately detect and quantify CXCR4 abnormalities in real time. The expression level and activation status of CXCR4 are very important for screening susceptible populations and providing an accurate diagnosis and optimal treatment. In view of the fact that radionuclide-labeled peptides have become widely used for the diagnosis and treatment of tumors, this manuscript reviews the potential of different radionuclide-labeled peptide inhibitors for the targeted imaging of CXCR4- positive tumors and targeted treatment. The article also discusses the specificity and in vivo distribution of radionuclide-labeled peptide inhibitors, and translation of these inhibitors to the clinic.

Abstract
Radiolabelled lipophilic cations that accumulate in mitochondria according to the magnitude of the mitochondrial membrane potential can be used to report non-invasively on mitochondrial dysfunction in cardiovascular disease, cardiotoxicity, and cancer. While several such cations are already commercially available for SPECT imaging, PET offers greater promise in terms of sensitivity, resolution, and capacity for dynamic imaging and pharmacokinetic modelling. We have therefore synthesised a series of three triarylphosphonium-functionalised DO3A chelators for positron emitter gallium-68, with differing alkyl-functionalisation motifs to provide opportunities for tunable lipophilicity as a means of optimising their pharmacokinetics. To assess their capacity to report on mitochondrial membrane potential, we assessed their pharmacokinetic profiles in isolated tumour cells and isolated perfused rat hearts before and after mitochondrial depolarisation with the ionophore CCCP. All three compounds radiolabelled with over 97% RCY and exhibited log D values of between -3.12 and -1.81. In vitro assessment of the uptake of the radiotracers in cultured tumour cells showed a three-fold increase in uptake compared to unchelated [68Ga]Ga(iii). However, each complex exhibited less than 1% retention in healthy hearts, which was not significantly diminished by mitochondrial depolarisation with CCCP. This preliminary work suggests that while this approach is promising, the lipophilicity of this class of tracers must be increased in order for them to be useful as cardiac or cancer imaging agents.

Abstract
Myocardial perfusion imaging using positron emission tomography (PET) has several advantages over single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT). The recent advances in SPECT technology have shown promise, but there is still a large need for PET in the clinical management of coronary artery disease (CAD). Especially, absolute quantification of myocardial blood flow (MBF) using PET is extremely important. In spite of considerable advances in the diagnosis of CAD, novel PET radiopharmaceuticals remain necessary for the diagnosis of CAD because clinical use of current cardiac radiotracers is limited by their physical characteristics, such as decay mode, emission energy, and half-life. Thus, the use of a radioisotope that has proper characteristics and a proper half-life to develop myocardial perfusion agents could overcome these limitations. In this review, the current state of cardiac PET and a general overview of novel 18F or 68Ga-labeled radiotracers, including their radiosynthesis, in vivo characterization, and evaluation, are provided. The future perspectives are discussed in terms of their potential usefulness based on new image analysis methods and hybrid imaging.

Abstract
Thioflavin T (ThT), a positively charged heterocyclic small molecule, is a widely used fluorescent marker of amyloid pathophysiology to confirm the cause of death in post mortem brain tissue of Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients. Literature precedents indicate that current positron emission tomography (PET) agents, such as 11C-PIB and 18F-flutemetamol, share significant structural similarity with ThT, a lipophilic dye which does not traverse the blood-brain barrier (BBB) to enable the detection of Aβ plaques in vivo. While vital for maintaining normal physiology and healthy brain function, the BBB comprises brain endothelial cells sealed via paracellular protein complexes, bound by an extracellular matrix forming tight junctions thus controlling the delivery of molecules into the brain. The human P-glycoprotein (Pgp/ABCB1, 170 kD plasma membrane protein), belonging to the ABC family of efflux transporter proteins, also lines the luminal surface of brain endothelial cells thus poised to secrete its recognized substrates into the blood. Herein, we postulate that thioflavin T (ThT), due to its physico-chemical attributes, such as moderate lipophilicity and protonated nitrogen, could very well be recognized as a transport substrate of Pgp (P-glycoprotein, ABCB1) thus restricting its permeation into the brain. To evaluate whether or not ThT is indeed recognized by Pgp as its transport substrate thus limiting its BBB permeability, herein, we evaluate cellular accumulation profiles of ThT and PiB (a similar structural uncharged mimetic) in human epidermal carcinoma KB-3-1 (Pgp-) and MDR KB-8-5 (Pgp+) cells, using live-cell fluorescence imaging. While ThT penetrates KB-3-1 cells, it gets excluded from KB-8-5 cells, and also indicates LY335979-induced uptake in Pgp-expressing cells. Furthermore, the cellular uptake profiles of PiB are not impacted by the expression of Pgp under identical conditions. These data show that uptake profiles of ThT have been modified by the expression of Pgp in these cells, and are inversely proportional to the expression of the transporter protein located on the plasma membrane of these cells. Combined data demonstrate that ThT is efficiently recognized by Pgp as its transport substrate.

Abstract
Geometrically similar monocationic gallium(iii) complexes and their radiolabeled SPECT counterparts were obtained from Schiff base precursor ligands using ligand exchange reactions to evaluate the impact of cis and trans-isomers on their cellular accumulation profiles in rat cardiomyoblasts (H9c2(2-1)) and human breast carcinoma (MCF-7neo) cells. 67Ga-metalloprobes comprising trans-phenolates showing an overall octahedral geometry and exhibiting uniform spatial distribution of positive charges on their molecular surface show steady-state accumulation in H9c2(2-1) and MCF-7neo cells, and localize in the mitochondria of the cells. Importantly, the surrogate geometrically similar and monocationic metalloprobe counterparts possessing the cis arrangement of phenolates do not show cellular uptake in H9c2(2-1) and MCF-7neo cells. Exploiting their modest fluorescent traits, live cell imaging indicates that trans-isomers of metalloprobes localize within the mitochondria of cells following their penetration, thereby indicating the excellent correlation of radiotracer data and live-cell microscopy results. Overall, these results indicate that the cell uptake profiles of metalloprobes within this class are mediated by the spatial distribution of charges over their molecular surface and hydrophobicity.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION For stratification of chemotherapeutic choices, radiopharmaceuticals capable of imaging breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP/ABCG2)-mediated functional transport are desired. To accomplish this objective, Galmydar, a fluorescent and moderately hydrophobic Ga(III) cationic complex and its (67/68)Ga-radiolabeled counterparts were interrogated in HEK293 cells stably transfected with BCRP and their WT counterparts transfected with empty vector. Additionally, the sensitivity and specificity of (68)Ga-Galmydar to evaluate functional expression of BCRP at the blood-brain barrier (BBB) was investigated in gene-knockout mdr1a/1b(-/-) (double knockout, dKO) and mdr1a/1b(-/-)ABCG2(-/-) (triple knockout, tKO) mouse models. METHODS For radiotracer uptake assays and live cell fluorescence imaging, either (67)Ga-Galmydar or its unlabeled counterpart was incubated in HEK293 cells transfected with BCRP (HEK293/BCRP) and their WT counterparts at 37°C under a continuous flux of CO2 (5%) in the presence or absence of Ko143, a potent BCRP antagonist, and cellular uptake was measured to assess the sensitivity of Galmydar to probe BCRP-mediated functional transport activity in cellulo. For assessing the potential of Galmydar to enable diagnostic imaging of targeted tissues in vivo, the (67)Ga-radiolabeled counterpart was incubated in either human serum albumin or human serum at 37°C and the percentage of unbound (67)Ga-Galmydar was determined. To evaluate the sensitivity of (68)Ga-Galmydar for molecular imaging of BCRP-mediated efflux activity in vivo, microPET/CT brain imaging was performed in dKO and tKO mice and their age-matched WT counterparts, 60min post-intravenous injection. RESULTS (67)Ga-Galmydar shows uptake profiles in HEK293 cells inversely proportional to BCRP expression, and antagonist (Ko143) induced accumulation in HEK293/BCRP cells, thus indicating target sensitivity and specificity. Furthermore, employing the fluorescent characteristics of Galmydar, optical imaging in HEK293/BCRP cells shows an excellent correlation with the radiotracer cellular accumulation data. (67)Ga-Galmydar shows > 85% unbound fraction and presence of parental compound in human serum. Finally, microPET/CT imaging shows higher retention of (68)Ga-Galmydar in brains of dKO and tKO mice compared to their age-matched WT counterparts, 60min post-intravenous tail-vein injection. CONCLUSIONS Combined data indicate that Galmydar could provide a template scaffold for development of a PET tracer for imaging BCRP-mediated functional transport activity in vivo.

Abstract
A new chalcone-based probe for the chromofluorogenic sensing of trivalent (Al3+ , Fe3+ , Cr3+ , Ga3+ , In3+ and As3+ ) over mono- and divalent cations and anions is reported. In the presence of trivalent metal cations, the probe was able to display a remarkable color change from yellow to colorless that was clearly visible to the naked eye. Also, the initial strong yellow emission was gradually quenched and substituted by a weakly shifted band.
