[摘要]：A series of novel N-fluoropyridyl-containing tropane derivatives were synthesized and their binding affinities for the dopamine transporter (DAT), serotonin transporter (SERT) and norepinephrine (NET) were determined via competitive radioligand binding assays. Among these derivatives, compound 6d showed the highest binding affinity to DAT (K-i = 4.1 nM), and selectivity for DAT over SERT (5-fold) and NET (16-fold). Compound 6d was radiolabeled with Fluorine-18 in two steps. Regional brain distribution and ex vivo autoradiography studies of [F-18]6d demonstrated that the ligand was selectively localized in the striatum region, where DAT binding sites are highly expressed. [F-18]6d may be useful as a potential radioligand for imaging DATs with PET. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved. |
