[11C]Elacridar as a novel P-glycoprotein PET tracer, assessment of whole-body distribution and radiation dosimetry in humans
نویسندگان
چکیده
Background The ATP-binding cassette transporter P-glycoprotein (P-gp) is expressed at the blood-brain barrier (BBB) where it protects the brain from toxic substances and xenobiotics by active efflux transport. The C-labelled third-generation P-gp inhibitor [C]elacridar was developed as a positron emission tomography (PET) tracer for the in vivo quantification of P-gp expression levels in different organs. The aim of this study was to provide human dosimetry estimates for [C]elacridar based on whole-body PET.

Whole-Body Distribution of Donepezil as an Acetylcholinesterase Inhibitor after Oral Administration in Normal Human Subjects: A 11C-donepezil PET Study
Objective(s): It is difficult to investigate the whole-body distribution of an orally administered drug by means of positron emission tomography (PET), owing to the short physical half-life of radionuclides, especially when 11C-labeled compounds are tested. Therefore, we aimed to examine the whole-body distribution of donepezil (DNP) as an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor by means of 11C-DNP PET ...

UNLABELLED The present study estimated the biodistribution and radiation-absorbed dose of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) radioligand 11C-PD153035 in whole-body PET examinations of healthy volunteers. METHODS Two-dimensional whole-body PET was performed on 9 subjects after injection of 11C-PD153035 at 329.3+/-77.8 MBq (mean+/-SD). A total of 12 frames were acquired for approximately 9...

Background The radiolabelled inhibitor of the multidrug efflux transporter P-glycoprotein (P-gp) [C]elacridar was developed as a positron emission tomography (PET) tracer to assess expression levels of P-gp at the blood-brain barrier (BBB) [1]. [C]Elacridar was shown to interact specifically with P-gp at the rodent BBB, but its brain PET signal was very low, which was possibly caused by transpo...

INTRODUCTION Despite the decades long use of [11C]palmitate positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography in basic metabolism studies, only personal communications regarding dosimetry and biodistribution data have been published. METHODS Dosimetry and biodistribution studies were performed in 2 pigs and 2 healthy volunteers by whole-body [11C]palmitate PET scans. Metabolite studies w...

UNLABELLED Whole-body PET/CT was used to characterize the radiation dosimetry of (11)C-DPA-713, a specific PET ligand for the assessment of translocator protein. METHODS Six healthy control subjects, 3 men and 3 women, underwent whole-body dynamic PET scans after bolus injection of (11)C-DPA-713. Subjects were scanned from head to mid thigh with 7 passes performed, with a total PET acquisitio...
