Pd(0)-mediated coupling between iodoarenes, [11C]carbon monoxide and aryltributylstannanes has been used to prepare simple model [11C]aryl ketones. Here, we aimed to label four 2-aminoethylbenzofuran chemotype based molecules ([11C]1-4) in the carbonyl position, as prospective positron emission tomography (PET) radioligands for the histamine subtype 3 receptor (H3R) by adapting this methodology...

BACKGROUND Glycine N-methyltransferase is an enzyme overexpressed in some neoplastic tissues. It catalyses the methylation of glycine using S-adenosyl methionine (SAM or AdoMet) as substrate. SAM is involved in a great variety of biochemical processes, including transmethylation reactions. Thus, [11C]SAM could be used to evaluate transmethylation activity in tumours. The only method reported fo...

The present paper is concerned with radiochemical methodology to furnish the trifluoromethyl motif labelled with (18)F. Literature spanning the last four decades is comprehensively reviewed and radiochemical yields and specific activities are discussed.

Abstract Background To the best of our knowledge, manually production [ 177 Lu]Lu-FAPI radiopharmaceutical derivatives has been only described in literature. In this work, a fully-automated synthesis well designed for first time using commercially available module. addition to development an automated system with disposable cassette, quality control (QC) and stability studies were comprehensive...

Molecular imaging for non-invasive assessment of angiogenesisis is of great interest for clinicians because of the wide-spread application of anti-angiogenic cancer therapeutics. Besides, many other interventions that involve the change of blood vessel/tumor microenvironment would also benefit from such imaging strategies. Of the imaging techniques that target angiogenesis, radiolabeled Arg-Gly...
