摘要
α-突触核蛋白(α-syn)聚集是许多神经退行性疾病的神经病理学特点,全部被统称为共核蛋白。对于这些疾病目前没有诊断前方法。虽然这些成分被描述为潜在的α-syn聚集配体,但是目前还没有可利用的α-syn 聚集的特殊PET放射性示踪剂。在缺少其它特定候选者的情况下,[18F]BF227已经被提出作为一种α-synPET放射性示踪剂。我们首次在此提出放射性示踪剂应用于快速蛋白病小鼠模型,在脑干和丘脑中显示α-syn沉积物。 我们的体内和体外研究显示 [18F]BF227 没有与α-syn 聚合物结合。这些结果强调[18F]BF227 PET没有合适这种实验蛋白的特征,论证发展的替代α-syn PET 指示剂的必要性。

摘要: Alpha-synuclein (α-syn) aggregation is a neuropathological hallmark of many neurodegenerative diseases, collectively termed synucleinopathies. There is currently no pre-mortem diagnosis tool for these diseases. Although some compounds have been described as potential ligands for α-syn aggregates, no specific PET radiotracer of aggregated α-syn is currently available. Recently, [18F]BF227 has been proposed as an α-syn PET radiotracer in the absence of other specific candidates. We proposed here, for the first time, to use this radiotracer in an accelerated mouse model of synucleinopathy presenting α-syn depositions in brainstem and thalamus. Our in vivo and in vitro studies showed that [18F]BF227 does not bind to α-syn aggregates. These results highlight the fact that [18F]BF227 PET has no suitable characteristics for monitoring this experimental synucleinopathy, justifying the need to develop alternative α-syn PET radiotracers.

Diagnostic and therapeutic biomarkers of dementia
Dementia affects 18 million people worldwide. Dementia is a syndrome of symptoms caused by brain disease, usually chronic or progressive, clinically characterized by multiple impairments of higher cortical functions such as memory, thinking, orientation, and learning. In addition, in the course of dementia, cognitive deficits are observed, which often hinder ...read more
