Test-retest reproducibility of [11C]-l-deprenyl-D2 binding to MAO-B in the human brain
BACKGROUND [11C]-L-deprenyl-D2 is a positron emission tomography (PET) radioligand for measurement of the monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B) activity in vivo brain. The estimation of the test-retest reproducibility is important for accurate interpretation of PET studies. RESULTS We performed two [11C]-L-deprenyl-D2 scans for six healthy subjects and evaluated the test-retest variability of this radi...
متن کاملTest-retest variability of adenosine A2A binding in the human brain with 11C-TMSX and PET
BACKGROUND The goal of the present study was to evaluate the reproducibility of cerebral adenosine A2A receptor (A2AR) quantification using (11)C-TMSX and PET in a test-retest study. METHODS Five healthy volunteers were studied twice. The test-retest variability was assessed for distribution volume (V T) and binding potential relative to non-displaceable uptake (BPND) based on either metaboli...
متن کاملSleep deprivation decreases binding of [11C]raclopride to dopamine D2/D3 receptors in the human brain.
Sleep deprivation did not affect dopamine transporters (target for most wake-promoting medications) and thus dopamine increases are likely to reflect increases in dopamine cell firing and/or release rather than decreases in dopamine reuptake. Because dopamine-enhancing drugs increase wakefulness, we postulate that dopamine increases after sleep deprivation is a mechanism by which the brain main...
متن کاملAn efficient preparation of labelling precursor of [11C]L-deprenyl-D2 and automated radiosynthesis
Background The synthesis of [11C]L-deprenyl-D2 for imaging of astrocytosis with positron emission tomography (PET) in neurodegenerative diseases has been previously reported. [11C]L-deprenyl-D2 radiosynthesis requires a precursor, L-nordeprenyl-D2, which has been previously synthesized from L-amphetamine as starting material with low overall yields. Here, we present an efficient synthesis of L-...
متن کاملTest–retest reproducibility of cannabinoid-receptor type 1 availability quantified with the PET ligand [11C]MePPEP
BACKGROUND Endocannabinoids are involved in normal cognition, and dysfunction in cannabinoid-receptor-mediated neurotransmission has been suggested in a variety of neurological and psychiatric pathologies. The type 1 cannabinoid receptor (CB1) is widely expressed in the human central nervous system. The objective of this study was to quantify the test-retest reproducibility of measures of the P...
