Synthesis of a β-CCT-lanthanide conjugate for binding the dopamine transporter.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The development of a β-CCT-lanthanide conjugate that binds the dopamine transporter (DAT) with high affinity (K(d) = 303 nM) is described. Contrast agents such as the one described herein could be used as molecular probes to directly study the binding of small molecules to receptors such as DAT via MRI, PET or SPECT.

متن کاملA PET study of [11C]-CIT-FE binding to the dopamine transporter in the monkey and human brain
Several radiolabelled cocaine analogues have been proposed for brain imaging of the dopamine transporter in research on neuropsychiatric disorders and drug abuse. In a recent positron emission tomography (PET) study we labelled the cocaine analogue β-CIT-FE with carbon-11 and demonstrated high specific binding in the monkey striatum. In the present study, the selectivity of [""C]β-CIT-FE bindin...

Objective(s): The aim of this study was to determine the optimal reconstruction parameters for iterative reconstruction in different devices and collimators for dopamine transporter (DaT) single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT). The results were compared between filtered back projection (FBP) and different attenuation correction (AC) methods.Methods: An anthropomorphic striatal phant...
متن کاملEvaluation of VNTR polymorphisms of dopamine transporter gene and the risk of bipolar disorder in Zahedan, southeast Iran
The exact role of dopamine transporter gene (DAT1) in the pathogenesis of bipolar disorder type 1 (BD) is not understood. In the present study, we aimed to evaluate the possible association between 30, 40 and 63 bp variable number tandem repeat (VNTR) polymorphisms of DAT1 gene and the risk of type 1 (BD) in a sample of Iranian population. This case-control study was performed on 152 BD patient...
