Radiosynthesis and evaluation of [C]GSK1838705A in mice using microPET and determination of specificity in human GBM UG87MR cells are described herein. The radioligand was synthesized by reacting desmethyl-GSK1838705A with [C]CHI using GE FX2MeI module in ∼5% yield (EOS), >95% radiochemical purity and a specific activity of 2.5±0.5Ci/μmol. MicroPET imaging in mice indicated that [C]GSK1838705A penetrated blood brain barrier (BBB) and showed retention of radiotracer in brain. The radioligand exhibited high uptake in U87MG cells with >70% specific binding to IGF1R. Our experiments suggest that [C]GSK-1838705A can be a potential PET radiotracer for the in vivo quantification of IGF1R expression in GBM and other brain tumors.

Fully automated radiosynthesis of [F]FCPPC for imaging microglia with PET.

Colony-stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSF1R) is almost exclusively expressed on microglia in the human brain and thus, has promise as a biomarker for imaging microglia density as a proxy for neuroinflammation. [C]CPPC is a radiotracer with selective affinity to CSF1R, and has been evaluated for in-human microglia PET imaging. The flourine-18 labeled CPPC derivative, 5-cyano-N-(4-(4-(2-[F]fluoroethyl)piperazin-1-yl)-2-(piperidin-1-yl)phenyl)furan-2-carboxamide ([F]FCPPC), was previously synthesized, however, with a low radiochemical yield using manual radiosynthesis.

Serotonergic 5-HT receptors in the cortex and other forebrain structures have been linked to cognitive, emotional and memory processes. In addition, dysfunction or altered expression of these receptors is associated with neuropsychiatric and neurodegenerative disorders. [F]R91150 is a candidate radiotracer for positron emission tomography (PET) imaging of 5-HT receptors, which showed promising properties in in vitro studies.

The sphingosine-1-phosphate-5 (S1P) receptor is one of the five membrane G protein-coupled receptors that are activated by the lysophospholipid, sphingosine-1-phosphate, resulting in regulation of many cellular processes. S1P receptors are located on oligodendrocytes and are proposed to influence oligodendrocyte physiology. Understanding S1P modulation during processes such as remyelination could have potential applications for demyelinating CNS disorders such as multiple sclerosis (MS).

Monoacylglycerol lipase (MAGL) is a 33 kDa cytosolic serine hydrolase that is widely distributed in the central nervous system and peripheral tissues. MAGL hydrolyzes monoacylglycerols into fatty acids and glycerol, playing a crucial role in endocannabinoid degradation. Inhibition of MAGL in the brain elevates levels of 2-arachidonoylglycerol and leads to decreased pro-inflammatory prostaglandin and thromboxane production.
