A Boronate-Caged [18F]FLT Probe for Hydrogen Peroxide Detection Using Positron Emission Tomography

چکیده
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play important roles in the development and progression of cancer and other diseases, motivating the development of translatable technologies for biological ROS imaging. Here we report Peroxy-Caged-[(18)F]Fluorodeoxy thymidine-1 (PC-FLT-1), an oxidatively immolative positron emission tomography (PET) probe for H2O2 detection. PC-FLT-1 reacts with H2O2 to generate [(18)F]FLT, allowing its peroxide-dependent uptake and retention in proliferating cells. The relative uptake of PC-FLT-1 was evaluated using H2O2-treated UOK262 renal carcinoma cells and a paraquat-induced oxidative stress cell model, demonstrating ROS-dependent tracer accumulation. The data suggest that PC-FLT-1 possesses promising characteristics for translatable ROS detection and provide a general approach to PET imaging that can be expanded to the in vivo study of other biologically relevant analytes.

BACKGROUND The detection of solitary pulmonary nodules (SPNs) that may potentially develop into a malignant lesion is essential for early clinical interventions. However, grading classification based on computed tomography (CT) imaging results remains a significant challenge. The 2-[18F]-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography (PET)/CT imaging produces both false-positiv...
متن کاملPET Cell Tracking Using 18F-FLT is Not Limited by Local Reuptake of Free Radiotracer
Assessing the retention of cell therapies following implantation is vital and often achieved by labelling cells with 2'-[18F]-fluoro-2'-deoxy-D-glucose (18F-FDG). However, this approach is limited by local retention of cell-effluxed radiotracer. Here, in a preclinical model of critical limb ischemia, we assessed a novel method of cell tracking using 3'-deoxy-3'-L-[18F]-fluorothymidine (18F-FLT)...

Fluorothymidine is a thymidine analog labeled with fluorine-18 fluorothymidine for positron emission tomography (18F-FLT-PET) imaging. Thymidine is a nucleic acid that is used to build DNA. Fluorine-18 fluorothymidine (18F-FLT) utilizes the same metabolic pathway as does thymidine but has a very low incidence of being incorporated into the DNA (<1%). 18F-FLT-PET could have a role in the evaluat...

Most frequently, gram-negative bacterial infections in humans are caused by Enterobacteriaceae and remain a major challenge in medical diagnostics. We non-invasively imaged moderate and severe systemic Yersinia enterocolitica infections in mice using the positron emission tomography (PET) tracer 3'-deoxy-3'-[18F]fluorothymidine ([18F]FLT), which is a marker of proliferation, and compared the in...
