Abstract
Objective
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by Aβ plaques in the brain. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a novel radiotracer, 4-[11C]methylamino-4′-N,N-dimethylaminoazo-benzene ([11C]TAZA), for binding to Aβ plaques in postmortem human brain (AD and normal control (NC)).
Methods
Radiosyntheses of [11C]TAZA, related [11C]Dalene (11C-methylamino-4′-dimethylaminostyrylbenzene), and reference [11C]PIB were carried out using [11C]methyltriflate prepared from [11C]CO2 and purified using HPLC. In vitro binding affinities were carried out in human AD brain homogenate with Aβ plaques labeled with [3H]PIB. In vitro autoradiography studies with the three radiotracers were performed on hippocampus of AD and NC brains. PET/CT studies were carried out in normal rats to study brain and whole body distribution.
Results
The three radiotracers were produced in high radiochemical yields (>40%) and had specific activities >37 GBq/μmol. TAZA had an affinity, Ki = 0.84 nM and was five times more potent than PIB. [11C]TAZA bound specifically

Background: Competition between neurotransmitter and radioligands has provided a very useful method to assess synaptic changes in dopamine, but this approach has been slow to extend to other neurotransmitter system. Previously, Fujita and colleagues showed that the high affinity beta2-nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (β2-nAChR) radioligand [123I]5-IA-85380 (5-IA) may be sensitive to extracellular increases in ACh in baboons; 1 however, such an examination in humans has lagged. Given that acetylcholine is one of the major neurotransmitters in the brain and has been implicated in the psychiatric and medical illnesses, we developed a paradigm
