Pitfalls and solutions of the fully-automated radiosynthesis of [11C]metoclopramide
Background [11C]Metoclopramide is a new radiotracer for investigating the activity of P-glycoprotein at the blood-brain barrier. A highly stable and reproducible radiosynthesis is a prerequisite for clinical studies applying [11C]metoclopramide or other ...

In vivo imaging of pyrrole-imidazole polyamides with positron emission tomography [PDF]
The biodistribution profiles in mice of two pyrrole-imidazole polyamides were determined by PET. Pyrrole-imidazole polyamides are a class of small molecules that can be programmed to bind a broad repertoire of DNA sequences, disrupt transcription factor ...

Imaging Microglial/Macrophage Activation in Spinal Cords of Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis Rats by Positron Emission Tomography Using the Mitochondrial 18kDa Translocator Protein Radioligand [18F]DPA-714 [PDF]
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory demyelinating disease of the CNS. Activated microglia/macrophages play a key role in the immunopathogenesis of MS and its corresponding animal models, experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE).

<sup>18</sup>F-Radiopharmaceutical Diversification Enabled by Deaminative Cross-Electrophile Couplings. [PDF]
A general Ni‐mediated (C)sp2–(C)sp3 cross‐coupling expedites access to 18F‐radiopharmaceuticals, essential for positron emission tomography imaging and drug discovery. This late‐stage diversification approach was implemented across three user‐friendly automated protocols affording 18F‐radiotracers in sufficient quantities for imaging.
