High-Contrast PET imaging with [ <sup>18</sup> F]-NT160, a Class-IIa Histone Deacetylase (Class-IIa HDAC) Probe for In Vivo Imaging of Epigenetic Machinery in the Central Nervous System
2022-11-13
Abstract excerpt
We utilized positron emission tomography (PET) imaging in vivo to map the spatiotemporal biodistribution/expression (protein density) of class-IIa histone deacetylases (class-IIa HDACs) in the brain. Herein, we report an improved radiosynthesis of [ 18 F]-NT160 using 4-hydroxy-TEMPO which led to a significant improvement in radiochemical yield and molar activity. PET imaging with [ 18 F]-NT160, a highly potent...
