The π-clamp-mediated conjugation method, which enables site-specific modification of cysteine residues, is a promising strategy for developing well-defined radiolabelled biomolecules for positron emission tomography (PET) imaging. We have applied this method to site-specifically attach the macrocyclic chelators "NODA" and "NODAGA" to the somatostatin receptor 2-targeted peptide, octreotate. The resulting novel NODA-octreotate and NODAGA-octreotate compounds can be radiolabelled with either [F]AlF or [Ga]Ga respectively.

  • Bulimia nervosa (BN) is a common psychiatric disorder that negatively impacts both the physical and mental health of those affected, with the role of fathers in this context being underexplored.* ! -
  • A systematic review evaluated 2421 studies, narrowing them down to 29, to examine the psychosocial aspects of fathers of individuals with BN and their link to the children's outcomes.* ! -

Article Synopsis
  • Sleep architecture in people with depression, especially older adults, is not well-defined, prompting a study to compare sleep patterns between depressed and non-depressed individuals aged over 50.
  • A systematic review identified 15 articles from over 2000, with data showing that depressed adults had significantly poorer sleep quality — less total sleep time, longer time to fall asleep, and more disruptions during the night compared to controls.
  • Although older depressed adults had some distinct sleep characteristics, inconsistencies in findings and the removal of certain studies affected the overall results, indicating that differences in sleep architecture vary among different age groups and are not consistently observed.
