Unlabelled: 3-(6-Methyl-pyridin-2-ylethynyl)-cyclohex-2-enone-O-11C-methyl-oxime (11C-ABP688), a noncompetitive and highly selective antagonist for the metabotropic glutamate receptor subtype 5 (mGluR5), was evaluated for its potential as a PET agent.
Methods: Six healthy male volunteers (mean age, 25 y; range, 21-33 y) were studied. Brain perfusion (15O-H2O) was measured immediately before each 11C-ABP688 PET scan.
