Abstract
The quantitative relationship between the disruption of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and the recruitment of glial cells was explored in a mouse model of endotoxemia. [18F]2-Fluoro-2-deoxy-sorbitol ([18F]FDS) PET imaging was used as a paracellular marker for quantitative monitoring of BBB permeability after i.v injection of increasing doses of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or vehicle (saline, n = 5). The brain distribution of [18F]FDS (VT, mL.cm-3) was estimated using kinetic modeling. LPS dose-dependently increased the brain VT of [18F]FDS after injection of LPS 4 mg/kg (5.2 ± 2.4-fold, n = 4, p < 0.01) or 5 mg/kg (9.0 ± 9.1-fold, n = 4, p < 0.01) but not 3 mg/kg (p > 0.05, n = 7). In 12 individuals belonging to the different groups, changes in BBB permeability were compared with expression of markers of astrocyte (GFAP) and microglial cell (CD11b) using ex vivo immunohistochemistry. Increased expression of CD11b and GFAP expression was observed in mice injected with 3 mg/kg of LPS, which did not increase with higher LPS doses. Quantitative [18F]FDS PET imaging can capture different levels of BBB permeability in vivo. A biphasic effect was observed with the lowest dose of LPS that triggered neuroinflammation without disruptive changes in BBB permeability, and higher LPS doses that increased BBB permeability without additional recruitment of glial cells.

Abstract
Aim Buprenorphine mainly acts as an agonist of mu-opioid receptors (mu-OR). High dose buprenorphine does not cause respiratory depression and can be safely administered to elicit typical opioid effects and explore pharmacodynamics. Acute buprenorphine, associated with functional and quantitative neuroimaging, may therefore provide a fully translational pharmacological challenge to explore the variability of response to opioids in vivo. We hypothesized that the CNS effects of acute buprenorphine could be monitored through changes in regional brain glucose metabolism, assessed using 18F-FDG microPET in rats. Materials and methods First, level of receptor occupancy associated with a single dose of buprenorphine (0.1 mg/kg, s.c) was investigated through blocking experiments using 11C-buprenorphine PET imaging. Behavioral study using the elevated plus-maze test (EPM) was performed to assess the impact of the selected dose on anxiety and also locomotor activity. Then, brain PET imaging using 18F-FDG was performed 30 min after injection of unlabeled buprenorphine (0.1 mg/kg, s.c) vs. saline. Two different 18F-FDG PET acquisition paradigms were compared: (i) 18F-FDG injected i.v. under anesthesia and (ii) 18F-FDG injected i.p. in awake animals to limit the impact of anesthesia. Results The selected dose of buprenorphine fully blocked the binding of 11C-buprenorphine in brain regions, suggesting complete receptor occupancy. This dose had no significant impact on behavioral tests used, regardless of the anesthetized/awake handling paradigm. In anesthetized rats, injection of unlabeled buprenorphine decreased the brain uptake of 18F-FDG in most brain regions except in the cerebellum which could be used as a normalization region. Buprenorphine treatment significantly decreased the normalized brain uptake of 18F-FDG in the thalamus, striatum and midbrain (p < 0.05), where binding of 11C-buprenorphine was the highest. The awake paradigm did not improve sensitivity and impact of buprenorphine on brain glucose metabolism could not be reliably estimated. Conclusion Buprenorphine (0.1 mg/kg, s.c) combined with 18F-FDG brain PET in isoflurane anesthetized rats provides a simple pharmacological imaging challenge to investigate the CNS effects of full receptor occupancy by this partial mu-OR agonist. Sensitivity of the method was not improved in awake animals. This strategy may be useful to investigate de desensitization of mu-OR associated with opioid tolerance in vivo.

Abstract
Domperidone and metoclopramide are widely prescribed antiemetic drugs with distinct neurological side effects. The impact of P-glycoprotein (P-gp)-mediated efflux at the blood−brain barrier (BBB) on brain exposure and BBB permeation was compared in vitro and in vivo using positron emission tomography (PET) imaging in rats with the radiolabeled analogs [11C]domperidone and [11C]metoclopramide. In P-gp-overexpressing cells, the IC50 of tariquidar, a potent P-gp inhibitor, was drastically different using [11C]domperidone (221 nM [198−248 nM]) or [11C]metoclopramide (4 nM [2−8 nM]) as the substrate. Complete P-gp inhibition led to a 1.8-fold higher increase in the cellular uptake of [11C]domperidone compared with [11C]metoclopramide (p < 0.0001). Brain PET imaging revealed that the baseline brain exposure (AUCbrain) of [11C]metoclopramide was 2.4-fold higher compared with [11C]domperidone (p < 0.001), consistent with a 1.8-fold higher BBB penetration (AUCbrain/AUCplasma). The maximal increase in the brain exposure (2.9-fold, p < 0.0001) and BBB penetration (2.9-fold, p < 0.0001) of [11C]metoclopramide was achieved using 8 mg/kg of tariquidar. In comparison, neither 8 nor 15 mg/kg of tariquidar increased the brain exposure of [11C]domperidone (p > 0.05). Domperidone is an avid P-gp substrate that was in vitro compared with metoclopramide. Domperidone benefits from a lower brain exposure and a limited risk for P-gp-mediated drug−drug interaction involving P-gp inhibition at the BBB.

Abstract
Endotoxemia-induced inflammation may impact the activity of hepatocyte transporters, which control the hepatobiliary elimination of drugs and bile acids. 99mTc-mebrofenin is a non-metabolized substrate of transporters expressed at the different poles of hepatocytes. 99mTc-mebrofenin imaging was performed in rats after the injection of lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Changes in transporter expression were assessed using quantitative polymerase chain reaction of resected liver samples. Moreover, the particular impact of pharmacokinetic drug–drug interactions in the context of endotoxemia was investigated using rifampicin (40 mg/kg), a potent inhibitor of hepatocyte transporters. LPS increased 99mTc-mebrofenin exposure in the liver (1.7 ± 0.4-fold). Kinetic modeling revealed that endotoxemia did not impact the blood-to-liver uptake of 99mTc-mebrofenin, which is mediated by organic anion-transporting polypeptide (Oatp) transporters. However, liver-to-bile and liver-to-blood efflux rates were dramatically decreased, leading to liver accumulation. The transcriptomic profile of hepatocyte transporters consistently showed a downregulation of multidrug resistance-associated proteins 2 and 3 (Mrp2 and Mrp3), which mediate the canalicular and sinusoidal efflux of 99mTc-mebrofenin in hepatocytes, respectively. Rifampicin effectively blocked both the Oatp-mediated influx and the Mrp2/3-related efflux of 99mTc-mebrofenin. The additive impact of endotoxemia and rifampicin led to a 3.0 ± 1.3-fold increase in blood exposure compared with healthy non-treated animals. 99mTc-mebrofenin imaging is useful to investigate disease-associated change in hepatocyte transporter function.

Abstract
Only partial deficiency/inhibition of P-glycoprotein (P-gp, ABCB1) function at the blood-brain barrier (BBB) is likely to occur in pathophysiological situations or drug-drug interactions. This raises questions regarding the sensitivity of available PET imaging probes to detect moderate changes in P-gp function at the living BBB. In vitro, the half-maximum inhibitory concentration (IC50) of the potent P-gp inhibitor tariquidar in P-gp-overexpressing cells was significantly different using either [11C]verapamil (44 nM), [11C]N-desmethyl-loperamide (19 nM) or [11C]metoclopramide (4 nM) as substrate probes. In vivo PET imaging in rats showed that the half-maximum inhibition of P-gp-mediated efflux of [11C]metoclopramide, achieved using 1 mg/kg tariquidar (in vivo IC50 = 82 nM in plasma), increased brain exposure by 2.1-fold for [11C]metoclopramide (p < 0.05, n = 4) and 2.4-fold for [11C]verapamil (p < 0.05, n = 4), whereby cerebral uptake of the "avid" substrate [11C]N-desmethyl-loperamide was unaffected (p > 0.05, n = 4). This comparative study points to differences in the "vulnerability" to P-gp inhibition among radiolabeled substrates, which were apparently unrelated to their "avidity" (maximal response to P-gp inhibition). Herein, we advocate that partial inhibition of transporter function, in addition to complete inhibition, should be a primary criterion of evaluation regarding the sensitivity of radiolabeled substrates to detect moderate but physiologically-relevant changes in transporter function in vivo.

Abstract
Sulfonylurea receptor 1 (SUR1) overexpression in the central nervous system is a potential biomarker for positron emission tomography (PET) imaging of brain damage and recovery. VU0071063, a selective ligand of SUR1 able to cross the blood-brain barrier, was isotopically radiolabeled with carbon-11 from a desmethyl precursor obtained quantitatively in one step. Ready-to-inject [11C]VU0071063 was obtained in 18 ± 2% radiochemical yield and 103 ± 22 GBq/μmol molar activity. PET imaging in healthy rats demonstrated a significant brain penetration and rapid elimination of the tracer in vivo, encouraging further investigation in animal models of SUR1 overexpression.

Abstract
A large body of preclinical research has shown that neuroimmunity plays a key role in the deleterious effects of alcohol (ethanol) to the brain. Translational imaging techniques are needed to monitor the efficacy of strategies to prevent or mitigate neuroinflammation and alleviate ethanol-induced neurotoxicity. Opioid receptor antagonists such as nalmefene are antagonists of the toll-like receptor 4, which may block the proinflammatory signaling cascade induced by ethanol at this specific target. Male adolescent rats received a validated protocol of ethanol injection (i.p, 3 g/kg daily for two consecutive days followed by two resting days) during 14 days. Positron emission tomography (PET) imaging with the translocator protein 18 kDa (TSPO) radioligand [18 F]DPA-714 was performed at day-15. Toxicity induced by repeated binge-like ethanol exposure (71% mortality) was drastically reduced by nalmefene pretreatment (0.4 mg/kg, 14% mortality). No mortality was observed in animals that received vehicle (control) or nalmefene alone. Compared with control animals (n = 10), a significant 2.8-fold to 4.6-fold increase in the volume of distribution (VT ) of [18 F]DPA-714 was observed among brain regions in animals exposed to ethanol only (n = 9). Pretreatment with nalmefene significantly alleviated the neuroimmune response to ethanol exposure in all brain regions (1.2-fold to 2.5-fold increase in VT ; n = 5). Nalmefene alone (n = 6) did not impact [18 F]DPA-714 VT compared with the control group. Nalmefene may protect against the neuroinflammatory response and overall toxicity associated with binge drinking. [18 F]DPA-714 PET imaging can be used to noninvasively address the neuroimmune impact of ethanol exposure and its modulation by pharmacological strategies in vivo, with translational perspectives.

Abstract
The effects of acute alcohol exposure to the central nervous system are hypothesized to involve the innate immune system. The neuroimmune response to an initial and acute alcohol exposure was investigated using translocator protein 18 kDa (TSPO) PET imaging, a non-invasive marker of glial activation, in adolescent baboons. Three different alcohol-naive adolescent baboons (3-4 years old, 9 to 14 kg) underwent 18 F-DPA-714 PET experiments before, during and 7-12 months after this initial alcohol exposure (0.7-1.0 g/l). The brain distribution of 18 F-DPA-714 (VT ; in ml/cm3 ) was estimated in several brain regions using the Logan plot analysis and the metabolite-corrected arterial input function. Compared with alcohol-naive animals (VTbrain = 3.7 ± 0.7 ml/cm3 ), the regional VT s of 18 F-DPA-714 were significantly increased during alcohol exposure (VTbrain = 7.2 ± 0.4 ml/cm3 ; p < 0.001). Regional VT s estimated several months after alcohol exposure (VTbrain = 5.7 ± 1.4 ml/cm3 ) were lower (p < 0.001) than those measured during alcohol exposure, but remained significantly higher (p < 0.001) than in alcohol-naive animals. The acute and long-term effects of ethanol exposure were observed globally across all brain regions. Acute alcohol exposure increased the binding of 18 F-DPA-714 to the brain in a non-human primate model of alcohol exposure that reflects the 'binge drinking' situation in adolescent individuals. The effect persisted for several months, suggesting a 'priming' of glial cell function after initial alcohol exposure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The neuroinflammatory response to morphine exposure modulates its antinociceptive effects, tolerance, and dependence. Positron emission tomography radioligands for translocator protein-18kDa such as [18F]DPA-714 are noninvasive biomarkers of glial activation, a hallmark of neuroinflammation. METHODS [18F]DPA-714 positron emission tomography imaging was performed in 5 baboons at baseline and 2 hours after i.m. morphine injection (1 mg/kg). Brain kinetics and metabolite-corrected input function were measured to estimate [18F]DPA-714 brain distribution. RESULTS Morphine significantly increased [18F]DPA-714 brain distribution by a 1.3 factor (P<.05; paired t test). The effect was not restricted to opioid receptor-rich regions. Differences in baseline [18F]DPA-714 binding were observed among baboons. The response to morphine predominated in animals with the highest baseline uptake. CONCLUSIONS [18F]DPA-714 positron emission tomography imaging may be useful to noninvasively investigate the brain immune component of morphine pharmacology. Correlation between baseline brain distribution and subsequent response to morphine exposure suggest a role for priming parameters in controlling the neuroinflammatory properties of opioids.

Abstract
Cyclosporin A (CsA) and dipyridamole (DPy) are potent inhibitors of the P-glycoprotein (P-gp; ABCB1) in vitro. Their efficacy at inhibiting P-gp at the blood-brain barrier (BBB) is difficult to predict. Efficient and readily available (i.e. marketed) P-gp inhibitors are needed as probes to investigate the role of P-gp at the human BBB. In this study, the P-gp inhibition potency at the BBB of therapeutic doses of CsA or DPy was evaluated in baboons using Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging with [(11)C]-N-desmethyl-loperamide ([(11)C]dLop), a radiolabeled P-gp substrate. The preparation of dLop as authentic standard and [(11)C]dLop as radiotracer were revisited so as to improve their production yields. [(11)C]dLop PET imaging was performed in the absence (n=3, baseline condition) and the presence of CsA (15mg/kg/h i.v., n=3). Three animals were injected with i.v. DPy at either 0.56 or 0.96 or 2mg/kg (n=1), corresponding to the usual, maximal and twice the maximal dose in patients, respectively, administered immediately before PET. [(11)C]dLop brain kinetics as well as [(11)C]dLop kinetics and radiometabolites in arterial plasma were measured to calculate [(11)C]dLop area-under the time-activity curve from 10 to 30min in the brain (AUCbrain) and in plasma (AUCplasma). [(11)C]dLop brain uptake was described by AUCR=AUCbrain/AUCplasma. CsA as well as DPy did not measurably influence [(11)C]dLop plasma kinetics and metabolism. Baseline AUCR (0.85±0.29) was significantly enhanced in the presence of CsA (AUCR=10.8±3.6). Injection of pharmacologic dose of DPy did not enhance [(11)C]dLop brain distribution with AUCR being 1.2, 0.9 and 1.1 after administration of 0.56, 0.96 and 2mg/kg DPy doses, respectively. We used [(11)C]dLop PET imaging in baboons, a relevant in vivo model of P-gp function at the BBB, to show the P-gp inhibition potency of therapeutic dose CsA. Despite in vitro P-gp inhibition potency, usual doses DPy are not likely to inhibit P-gp function at the BBB.

Abstract
In clinical practice, rifampicin exposure is estimated from its concentration in venous blood samples. In this study, we hypothesized that differences in rifampicin concentration may exist between arterial and venous plasma. An HPLC-UV method for determining rifampicin concentration in plasma using rifapentine as an internal standard was validated. The method, which requires a simple protein precipitation procedure as sample preparation, was performed to compare venous and arterial plasma kinetics after a single therapeutic dose of rifampicin (8.6 mg/kg i.v, infused over 30 min) in baboons (n=3). The method was linear from 0.1 to 40 μg mL(-1) and all validation parameters fulfilled the international requirements. In baboons, rifampicin concentration in arterial plasma was higher than in venous plasma. Arterial Cmax was 2.1±0.2 fold higher than venous Cmax. The area under the curve (AUC) from 0 to 120 min was ∼80% higher in arterial plasma, indicating a significant arteriovenous concentration gradient in early rifampicin pharmacokinetics. Arterial and venous plasma concentrations obtained 6h after rifampicin injection were not different. An important arteriovenous equilibration delay for rifampicin pharmacokinetics is reported. Determination in venous plasma concentrations may considerably underestimate rifampicin exposure to organs during the distribution phase.

Abstract
Translocator protein 18 kDa (TSPO) expression at the mitochondrial membrane of glial cells is related to glial activation. TSPO radioligands such as [(18)F]DPA-714 are useful for the non-invasive study of neuroimmune processes using positron emission tomography (PET). Anesthetic agents were shown to impact mitochondrial function and may influence [(18)F]DPA-714 binding parameters and PET kinetics. [(18) F]DPA-714 PET imaging was performed in Papio anubis baboons anesthetized using either intravenous propofol (n = 3) or inhaled isoflurane (n = 3). Brain kinetics and metabolite-corrected input function were measured to estimate [(18) F]DPA-714 brain distribution (VT). Displacement experiments were performed using PK11195 (1.5 mg/kg). In vitro [(18)F]DPA-714 binding experiments were performed using baboon brain tissue in the absence and presence of tested anesthetics. Brain radioactivity peaked higher in isoflurane-anesthetized animals compared with propofol (SUVmax = 2.7 ± 0.5 vs. 1.3 ± 0.2, respectively) but was not different after 30 min. Brain VT was not different under propofol and isoflurane. Displacement resulted in a 35.8 ± 8.4% decrease of brain radioactivity under propofol but not under isoflurane (0.1 ± 7.0%). In vitro, the presence of propofol increased TSPO density and dramatically reduced its affinity for [(18)F]DPA-714 compared with control. This in vitro effect was not significant with isoflurane. Exposure to propofol and isoflurane differentially influences TSPO interaction with its specific radioligand [(18)F]DPA-714 with subsequent impact on its tissue kinetics and specific binding estimated in vivo using PET. Therefore, the choice of anesthetics and their potential influence on PET data should be considered for the design of imaging studies using TSPO radioligands, especially in a translational research context.

Abstract
The fluorinated D-glucose analog (18)F-2-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose ((18)F-FDG) is the most prevalent radiopharmaceutical for positron emission tomography (PET) imaging. P-Glycoprotein's (P-gp, MDR1, and ABCB1) function in various cancer cell lines and tumors was shown to impact (18)F-FDG incorporation, suggesting that P-gp function at the blood-brain barrier may also modulate (18)F-FDG brain kinetics. We tested the influence of P-gp inhibition using the cyclosporine analog valspodar (PSC833; 5 μM) on the uptake of (18)F-FDG in standardized human P-gp-overexpressing cells (MDCKII-MDR1). Consequences for (18)F-FDG brain kinetics were then assessed using (i) (18)F-FDG PET imaging and suitable kinetic modelling in baboons without or with P-gp inhibition by intravenous cyclosporine infusion (15 mg kg(-1) h(-1)) and (ii) in situ brain perfusion in wild-type and P-gp/Bcrp (breast cancer resistance protein) knockout mice and controlled D-glucose exposure to the brain. In vitro, the time course of (18)F-FDG uptake in MDR1 cells was influenced by the presence of valspodar in the absence of D-glucose but not in the presence of high D-glucose concentration. PET analysis revealed that P-gp inhibition had no significant impact on estimated brain kinetics parameters K 1, k 2, k 3, V T , and CMRGlc. The lack of P-gp effect on in vivo (18)F-FDG brain distribution was confirmed in P-gp/Bcrp-deficient mice. P-gp inhibition indirectly modulates (18)F-FDG uptake into P-gp-overexpressing cells, possibly through differences in the energetic cell level state. (18)F-FDG is not a P-gp substrate at the BBB and (18)F-FDG brain kinetics as well as estimated brain glucose metabolism are influenced by neither P-gp inhibition nor P-gp/Bcrp deficiencies in baboon and mice, respectively.

Abstract
Glyburide (glibenclamide, GLB) is a widely prescribed antidiabetic with potential beneficial effects in central nervous system injury and diseases. In vitro studies show that GLB is a substrate of organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP) and ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter families, which may influence GLB distribution and pharmacokinetics in vivo. In the present study, we used [(11)C]GLB positron emission tomography (PET) imaging to non-invasively observe the distribution of GLB at a non-saturating tracer dose in baboons. The role of OATP and P-glycoprotein (P-gp) in [(11)C]GLB whole-body distribution, plasma kinetics, and metabolism was assessed using the OATP inhibitor rifampicin and the dual OATP/P-gp inhibitor cyclosporine. Finally, we used in situ brain perfusion in mice to pinpoint the effect of ABC transporters on GLB transport at the blood-brain barrier (BBB). PET revealed the critical role of OATP on liver [(11)C]GLB uptake and its subsequent impact on [(11)C]GLB metabolism and plasma clearance. OATP-mediated uptake also occurred in the myocardium and kidney parenchyma but not the brain. The inhibition of P-gp in addition to OATP did not further influence [(11)C]GLB tissue and plasma kinetics. At the BBB, the inhibition of both P-gp and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) was necessary to demonstrate the role of ABC transporters in limiting GLB brain uptake. This study demonstrates that GLB distribution, metabolism, and elimination are greatly dependent on OATP activity, the first step in GLB hepatic clearance. Conversely, P-gp, BCRP, and probably multidrug resistance protein 4 work in synergy to limit GLB brain uptake.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION [(18)F]Fallypride, a fluorinated and substituted benzamide with high affinity for D2/D3 receptors, is a useful PET radioligand for the study of striatal/extrastriatal areas. Since [(18)F]fallypride is extensively metabolized in vivo and since PET examinations are long lasting in humans, the rapid measurement of the unchanged radiotracer in plasma is essential for the quantification of images. The present study aims: i) to evaluate if the radiometabolites of [(18)F]fallypride cross the blood-brain barrier in rodents, ii) to identify these radiometabolites in baboon plasma and iii) to develop a rapid solid phase extraction method (SPE) suitable for human applications to quantify both [(18)F]fallypride and its radiometabolites in plasma. METHODS The metabolites P450-dependant in rat and human liver microsomes were characterized by LC-MS-MS and compared to those detected in vivo. Sequential solvent elution on Oasis®-MCX-SPE cartridges was used to quantify [(18)F]fallypride and its radiometabolites. RESULT In rat microsomal incubations, five metabolites generated upon N/O-dealkylation or hydroxylation at the pyrrolidine and/or at the benzamide moiety were identified. No radiometabolite was detected in the rat brain. N-dealkylated and hydroxylated derivatives were detected in human microsomal incubations as well as in baboon plasma. The use of SPE (total recovery 100.2%± 2.8%, extraction yield 95.5%± 0.3%) allowed a complete separation of [(18)F]fallypride from its radiometabolites in plasma and evaluate [(18)F]fallypride at 150 min pi to be 22%± 5% of plasma radioactivity. CONCLUSIONS The major in vivo radiometabolites of [(18)F]fallypride were produced by N-dealkylation and hydroxylation. Allowing the rapid analysis of multiple plasma samples, SPE is a method of choice for the determination of [(18)F]fallypride until late images required for quantitative PET imaging in humans.

Abstract
[(18)F]DPA-714 [N,N-diethyl-2-(2-(4-(2[(18)F]-fluoroethoxy)phenyl)5,7dimethylpyrazolo[1,5a]pyrimidin-3-yl)acetamide] is a new radioligand currently used for imaging the 18-kDa translocator protein in animal models of neuroinflammation and recently in humans. The biodistribution by positron emission tomography (PET) in baboons and the in vitro and in vivo metabolism of [(18)F]DPA-714 were investigated in rats, baboons, and humans. Whole-body PET experiments showed a high uptake of radioactivity in the kidneys, heart, liver, and gallbladder. The liver was a major route of elimination of [(18)F]DPA-714, and urine was a route of excretion for radiometabolites. In rat and baboon plasma, high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) metabolic profiles showed three major radiometabolites accounting for 85% and 89% of total radioactivity at 120 minutes after injection, respectively. Rat microsomal incubations and analyses by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) identified seven metabolites, characterized as O-deethyl, hydroxyl, and N-deethyl derivatives of nonradioactive DPA-714, two of them having the same retention times than those detected in rat and baboon plasma. The third plasma radiometabolite was suggested to be a carboxylic acid compound that accounted for 15% of the rat brain radioactivity. O-deethylation led to a nonradioactive compound and [(18)F]fluoroacetic acid. Human CYP3A4 and CYP2D6 were shown to be involved in the oxidation of the radioligand. Finally an easy, rapid, and accurate method--indispensable for PET quantitative clinical studies--for quantifying [(18)F]DPA-714 by solid-phase extraction was developed. In vivo, an extensive metabolism of [(18)F]DPA-714 was observed in rats and baboons, identified as [(18)F]deethyl, [(18)F]hydroxyl, and [(18)F]carboxylic acid derivatives of [(18)F]DPA-714. The main route of excretion of the unchanged radioligand in baboons was hepatobiliary while that of radiometabolites was the urinary system.

Abstract
BACKGROUND LBT-999 (E)-N-(4-fluorobut-2-enyl)-2β-carbomethoxy-3β-(4'-tolyl)nortropane is a dopamine transporter (DAT) ligand. [(18)F]LBT-999 was first labelled with carbon-11; we will now describe its in vivo behaviour in comparison to that of [(11)C]LBT-999. METHODS/RESULTS Positron emission tomography (PET) experiments (baboons) confirmed the high affinity/specificity of [(18)F]LBT-999 for DAT. The brain regional distribution was in accordance with that of DAT. Pre-treatment with LBT-999 (1 mg/kg iv), but not with desipramine, a norepinephrine (NET) antagonist, reduced the striatum-to-cerebellum ratio by 96%, confirming the specificity for DAT vs. NET. The parent compound decreased rapidly and represented 24.3 ± 5.0% of plasma radioactivity at 30 min pi. Whole-body scans showed an important bone uptake of free fluorine following metabolism of [(18)F]LBT-999. In the cerebellum and striatum, distribution volumes increased by 30-40% between 80 and 230 min, suggesting the polluting role of a radiometabolite(s). [(11)C]LBT-999 exhibited a 40% higher standardized uptake value in the striata. This difference is likely due to N-dealkylation followed by [(18)F]fluoride release. 2β-Carbomethoxy-3β-(4'-tolyl) nortropane is then formed, while [(11)C]2β-carbomethoxy-3β-(4'-tolyl) nortropane is formed following injection of [(11)C]LBT-999. This metabolite has high affinity for the DAT. In one specific PET experiment, intravenous injection of this metabolite induced a strong displacement of [(18)F]LBT-999 in the striata, confirming that this metabolite readily crosses the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and binds to DAT. CONCLUSIONS [(18)F]LBT-999 is N-dealkylated in vivo to yield (1) a nonradioactive metabolite that crosses the BBB and has a high affinity for the DAT and (2) a [(18)F]fluoro-alkyl chain which is further defluorinated. The temporal changes in distribution volumes are consistent with the accumulation of a radiometabolite(s) in the brain. Therefore, the quantification of DAT density with [(18)F]LBT-999 is rather difficult.

Abstract
The multiinjection approach was used to study in vivo interactions between alpha4beta2(*) nicotinic acetylcholine receptors and 2-[(18)F]fluoro-A-85380 in baboons. The ligand kinetics was modeled by the usual nonlinear compartment model composed of three compartments (arterial plasma, free and specifically bound ligand in tissue). Arterial blood samples were collected to generate a metabolite-corrected plasma input function. The experimental protocol, which consisted of three injections of labeled or unlabeled ligand, was aiming at identifying all parameters in one experiment. Various parameters, including B'(max) (the binding sites density) and K(d)V(R) (the apparent in vivo affinity of 2-[(18)F]fluoro-A-85380) could then be estimated in thalamus and in several receptor-poor regions. B'(max) estimate was 3.0+/-0.3 pmol/mL in thalamus, and ranged from 0.25 to 1.58 pmol/mL in extrathalamic regions. Although K(d)V(R) could be precisely estimated, the association and dissociation rate constants k(on)/V(R) and k(off) could not be identified separately. A second protocol was then used to estimate k(off) more precisely in the thalamus. Having estimated all model parameters, we performed simulations of 2-[(18)F]fluoro-A-85380 kinetics to test equilibrium hypotheses underlying simplified approaches. These showed that a pseudo-equilibrium is quickly reached between the free and bound compartments, a favorable situation to apply Logan graphical analysis. In contrast, the pseudo-equilibrium between the plasma and free compartments is only reached after several hours. The ratio of radioligand concentration in these two compartments then overestimates the true equilibrium value, an unfavorable situation to estimate distribution volumes from late images after a bolus injection.

Abstract
The radioligand 2-[(18)F]fluoro-A-85380 has been developed for imaging alpha(4)beta(2) nAChRs with PET. However, it has slow kinetics and a large fraction of bound activity is nondisplaceable. In an attempt to address these problems, two epibatidine-based alpha(4)beta(2) nicotinic antagonists, coded FPhEP and F(2)PhEP, were evaluated in vivo in baboons. They were radiolabeled with fluorine-18 from the corresponding N-Boc-protected bromo-derivatives and the no-carrier-added K[(18)F]F-Kryptofix(222) complex. Radiochemically pure [(18)F]FPhEP or [(18)F]F(2)PhEP was obtained in 80 min in amounts of 1.11-2.22 GBq (111-185 GBq/micromol). After injection of 215 MBq of [(18)F]FPhEP or [(18)F]F(2)PhEP, dynamic PET data were acquired. Thalamic radioactivity peaked at 20 min (4.9% +/- 0.2% ID/100 mL tissue) for [(18)F]FPhEP. For [(18)F]F(2)PhEP, the peak was at 45 min (3.3% +/- 0.1% ID/100 mL tissue). Regional distribution of both radiotracers was in accordance with the known distribution of nAChRs. In presaturation experiments, nicotine, cytosine, or FPhEP reduced brain radioactivity of [(18)F]FPhEP. In a displacement experiment with nicotine only a small amount of [(18)F]F(2)PhEP was dislodged. In spite of a moderate to high in vitro affinity, both ligands do not fulfill the widely adopted criteria for a PET radioligand.

Abstract
Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) are involved in a familial form of frontal lobe epilepsy, autosomal dominant nocturnal frontal lobe epilepsy (ADNFLE). In several ADNFLE families, mutations were identified in the nAChR alpha4 or beta2 subunit, which together compose the main cerebral nAChR. Electrophysiological assessment using in vitro expression systems indicated a gain of function of the mutant receptors. However the precise mechanisms by which they contribute to the pathogenesis of a focal epilepsy remain obscure, especially since alpha4beta2 nAChRs are known to be widely distributed within the entire brain. PET study using [18F]-F-A-85380, a high affinity agonist at the alpha4beta2 nAChRs, allows the determination of the regional distribution and density of the nAChRs in healthy volunteers and in ADNFLE patients, thus offering a unique opportunity to investigate some in vivo consequences of the molecular defect. We have assessed nAChR distribution in eight non-smoking ADNFLE patients (from five families) bearing an identified mutation in nAChRs and in seven age-matched non-smoking healthy volunteers using PET and [(18)F]-F-A-85380. Parametric images of volume of distribution (Vd) were generated as the ratio of tissue to plasma radioactivities. The images showed a clear difference in the pattern of the nAChR density in the brains of the patients compared to the healthy volunteers. Vd values revealed a significant increase (between 12 and 21%, P < 0.05) in the ADNFLE patients in the mesencephalon, the pons and the cerebellum when compared to control subjects. Statistical parametric mapping (SPM) was then used to better analyse subtle regional differences. This analysis confirmed clear regional differences between patients and controls: patients had increased nAChR density in the epithalamus, ventral mesencephalon and cerebellum, but decreased nAChR density in the right dorsolateral prefrontal region. In five patients who underwent an additional [(18)F]-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET experiment, hypometabolism was observed in the neighbouring area of the right orbitofrontal cortex. The demonstration of a regional nAChR density decrease in the prefrontal cortex, despite the known distribution of these receptors throughout the cerebral cortex, is consistent with a focal epilepsy involving the frontal lobe. We also propose that the nAChR density increase in mesencephalon is involved in the pathophysiology of ADNFLE through the role of brainstem ascending cholinergic systems in arousal.

Abstract
FPhEP (1, (+/-)-2-exo-(2'-fluoro-3'-phenyl-pyridin-5'-yl)-7-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane) belongs to a recently described novel series of 3'-phenyl analogues of epibatidine, which not only possess subnanomolar affinity and high selectivity for brain alpha4beta2 neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs), but also were reported as functional antagonists of low toxicity (up to 15 mg/kg in mice). FPhEP (1, K(i) of 0.24 nM against [(3)H]epibatidine) as reference as well as the corresponding N-Boc-protected chloro- and bromo derivatives (3a,b) as precursors for labelling with fluorine-18 were synthesized in eight and nine steps, respectively, from commercially available N-Boc-pyrrole (overall yields=17% for 1, 9% for 3a and 8% for 3b). FPhEP (1) was labelled with fluorine-18 using the following two-step radiochemical process: (1) no-carrier-added nucleophilic heteroaromatic ortho-radiofluorination from the corresponding N-Boc-protected chloro- or bromo derivatives (3 a,b-1mg) and the activated K[(18)F]F-Kryptofix(222) complex in DMSO using microwave activation at 250 W for 1.5 min, followed by (2) quantitative TFA-induced removal of the N-Boc-protective group. Radiochemically pure (>99%) [(18)F]FPhEP ([(18)F]-1, 2.22-3.33 GBq, 66-137 GBq/micromol) was obtained after semi-preparative HPLC (Symmetry C18, eluent aq 0.05 M NaH(2)PO(4)/CH(3)CN, 80:20 (v:v)) in 75-80 min starting from a 18.5 GBq aliquot of a cyclotron-produced [(18)F]fluoride production batch (10-20% nondecay-corrected overall yield). In vitro binding studies on rat whole-brain membranes demonstrated a subnanomolar affinity (K(D) 660 pM) of [(18)F]FPhEP ([(18)F]-1) for nAChRs. In vitro autoradiographic studies also showed a good contrast between nAChR-rich and -poor regions with a low non-specific binding. Comparison of in vivo Positron Emission Tomography (PET) kinetics of [(18)F]FPhEP ([(18)F]-1) and [(18)F]F-A-85380 in baboons demonstrated faster brain kinetics of the former compound (with a peak uptake at 20 min post injection only). Taken together, the preliminary data obtained confirm that [(18)F]FPhEP ([(18)F]-1) has potential for in vivo imaging nAChRs in the brain with PET.

Abstract
LBT-999 (8-((E)-4-fluoro-but-2-enyl)-3beta-p-tolyl-8-aza-bicyclo[3.2.1]octane-2beta-carboxylic acid methyl ester), a cocaine derivative belonging to a new generation of highly selective dopamine transporter (DAT) ligands, and its corresponding carboxylic acid derivative, the latter used as precursor for labelling both with tritium and the positron-emitter carbon-11 (half-life: 20.38 min), were synthesized from (R)-cocaine. [(3)H]LBT-999 (>99% radiochemically pure, specific radioactivity of 3.1 TBq/mmol) was prepared from [(3)H]methyl iodide, allowing its in vitro pharmacological evaluation (K(D): 9 nM for DAT and IC(50) > 1000 nM for SERT and NET). Routine production batches of 4.5-9.0 GBq of iv injectable solutions of [(11)C]LBT-999 (with specific radioactivities ranging from 30 to 45 GBq/mumol) were prepared in 25-30 min (HPLC purification and formulation included) using the efficient methylation reagent [(11)C]methyl triflate. The preliminary in vivo pharmacological evaluation of [(11)C]LBT-999, using both biodistributions in rats and brain imaging in monkeys with positron emission tomography (PET), clearly illustrates that this ligand is an excellent candidate for quantification with PET of DAT in humans.

Abstract
A new tropane derivative, (E)-N-(4-fluorobut-2-enyl)-2beta-carbomethoxy-3beta-(4'-tolyl)nortropane (LBT-999), was evaluated in baboons as a carbon-11 radioligand for studies of the dopamine transporter (DAT) using positron emission tomography (PET). Brain uptake was high in the striatum (17 and 13% ID/100 mL tissue in the putamen and the caudate, respectively), moderate in the midbrain and thalamus (5 and 3% ID/100 mL tissue, respectively), and low in the cortex and cerebellum (2% ID/100 mL tissue) at 30 min post injection. The striatum-to-cerebellum ratio was high (30 at 110 min post injection). Specific binding was completely blocked following pretreatment with the DAT antagonists GBR12909 (5 mg/kg i.v.) or PE2I (1 mg/kg i.v.). The [(11)C]LBT-999 uptake was decreased by these antagonists in the putamen (-79 and -92%, respectively), caudate (-80 and -91%, respectively), midbrain (-73 and -78%, respectively), and thalamus (-34 and -46%, respectively). The serotonin transporter (SERT) antagonist citalopram (5 mg/kg i.v.) or the norepinephrine transporter antagonist maprotiline (5 mg/kg i.v.) had no effect on LBT specific binding. Pharmacological challenge with PE2I (1 mg/kg i.v.) induced a rapid and almost complete decrease of the specific binding in the putamen (-97%), caudate (-96%), midbrain (-96%), and thalamus (-81%), confirming the reversibility of [(11)C]LBT-999 binding. The high brain uptake of [(11)C]LBT-999 together with its low nonspecific binding (reflected by the very high brain structure-to-cerebellum ratio) indicate that this radiotracer is an excellent candidate for in vivo quantification of the DAT, especially in extrastriatal structures, such as the midbrain.

Abstract
In the aim to develop an efficient fluorinated probe for positron emission tomography (PET) exploration of the dopamine transporter (DAT), we studied several in vitro and in vivo characteristics of the phenyltropane derivative (E)-N-(4-fluorobut-2-enyl)-2beta-carbomethoxy-3beta-(4'-tolyl)nortropane (LBT-999). In vitro on rat striatal membrane, [(3)H]LBT-999 bound to a single site with a K(d) of 9 nM, B(max) of 17 pmol/mg protein, and a very high selectivity for the DAT [IC(50) for 1-{2-[bis-(4-fluorophenyl)-methoxy]ethyl}-4-(3-phenylpropyl)piperazine (GBR 12909) and (E)-N-(3-iodoprop-2-enyl)-2beta-carbomethoxy-3beta-(4'-methylphenyl)nortropane (PE2I): 2.4 and 18 nM, respectively; IC(50) for paroxetine, citalopram, N,N-dimethyl-2-(2-amino-4-methylphenyl thio)benzylamine, nisoxetine, and desipramine >1 muM]. In vitro on post-mortem human brain sections, LBT-999 bound with high intensity to the caudate-putamen, weakly to the thalamus, and not in the neocortex and cerebellum. This binding was totally abolished in the presence of PE2I. Ex vivo cerebral biodistribution of [(11)C]LBT-999 in rats showed striatum/cerebellum radioactivity ratios of 18 and 25 at 30 and 60 min postinjection, respectively. This accumulation was strongly prevented by preinjection of GBR 12909, whereas paroxetine and nisoxetine had no effect. An in vivo kinetic PET study in three baboons showed a fast and very high uptake in the striatum, with a plateau at 30 min postinjection and a maximal putamen/cerebellum ratio of 30. Taken together, these findings demonstrate that LBT-999 is a highly promising agent for in vivo exploration of the DAT. This probe is currently labeled with (18)F for further characterizations.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to quantify D2 receptors density and affinity in living rats using [11C]raclopride and to validate the multiinjection modelling approach. To this aim, we used an intracerebral beta+-sensitive probe as a highly sensitive system to quantify the radioligand activity using a single three-injection experimental paradigm. The study was divided into three main parts: (i) [11C]raclopride catabolism evaluation without and with cimetidine pretreatment (cytochrome P450 inhibitor); (ii) quantification of kinetics parameters in the striatum, enthorinal cortex, and cerebellum of living rats using a three-compartment model with an arterial input function; (iii) correlation study of in vivo and in vitro binding density and affinity values in the same striatal tissues. (i) raclopride catabolism was very reproducible between individuals; cimetidine pre-treatment resulted in a 30% reduction of raclopride metabolites. (ii) D2 striatal B'max and KdVr estimates obtained by compartmental modelling were 19.87+/-6.45 and 6.2+/-3.3 nmol/L, respectively. Cerebellum is the best candidate as a reference region with no specific binding detectable in vivo. (iii) When comparing density (Bmax/B'max) and affinity (Kd/KdVr) values in vivo and in vitro for each striatum, a high strict correlation was found (r2=0.90 and 0.72, for density and affinity, respectively). These results validate the multi-injection modelling approach coupled to beta-microprobe acquisitions as a mean to provide accurate and separate estimates of dopamine D2-receptor density and affinity, in the living rodent striatum.
