Synthesis and evaluation of 6-[(18)F]fluoro-3-(2(S)-azetidinylmethoxy)pyridine as a PET tracer for nicotinic acetylcholine receptors

Both ABT-594 ((R)-2-chloro-5-(2-azetidinylmethoxy)pyridine) and A-85380 (3-[2(S)-2-azetidinylmethoxy]pyridine), novel nicotinic agonists that possess potent non-opioid analgesic properties, have high affinity for neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR) but do not elicit the pronounced toxicity of epibatidine. 6-[(18)F]Fluoro-3-(2(S)-azetidinylmethoxy)pyridine (6-[(18)F]fluoro-A-85380), a F-18 labeled analogue of these two compounds, is therefore a promising radioligand for positron emission tomography (PET) studies in humans. The use of trimethylammonium as a leaving group in nucleophilic aromatic substitution reactions has proven to be a versatile and efficient strategy, and offers several advantages over other leaving groups. Here, we report the synthetic strategy for the preparation of a precursor, as a trimethylammonium iodide salt, and its use in the radiosynthesis to 6-[(18)F]fluoro-A-85380. Preliminary compartative PET studies of 6-[(18)F]fluoro-A-85380 and 2-[(18)F]fluoro-A-85380 were carried out in baboon to examine their suitability as tracers for studying nAChR system.     

Increased chromatid-type chromosomal aberrations in mouse m5S cells exposed to power-line frequency magnetic fields

PURPOSE: To investigate the induction of chromosomal aberrations in mouse m5S cells after exposure to power-line frequency magnetic fields (extremely low frequency magnetic fields; ELFMF) at high-flux densities. MATERIAL AND METHOD: m5S cells were either untreated or pretreated during the G1 phase with mitomycin C (MMC, 1 microM) for 1 h or 3 Gy X-rays, and then exposed to ELFMF at three different flux densities (5 and 50 mT at 60 Hz, 400 mT at 50 Hz) for 40 h. Unexposed control cells were incubated for the same period in a conventional CO2 incubator. Chromosomal aberrations were analysed in the first post-treatment metaphases. Cell kinetics were assessed by DNA flow cytometry and the mitotic index. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: ELFMF enhanced the formation of spontaneous and MMC- or X-ray-induced chromosomal aberrations, in a flux-density-dependent manner. Statistically significant increases in the frequency of chromosomal aberrations were observed in cells exposed to 400 mT ELFMF with respect to unexposed controls. The aberrations induced by ELFMF were mostly chromatid-type, not chromosome-type. The cells exposed to 400 mT ELFMF exhibited a three-fold higher level of chromatid-type aberrations than did the unexposed cells. Flow cytometric and mitotic index analyses revealed that the S or G2 arrest following MMC or X-irradiation was more profound in ELFMF-exposed cells than in unexposed cells. Our results suggest that ELFMF can interfere with post-replication repair, resulting in increased levels of chromatid-type chromosomal aberrations induced spontaneously and by DNA damaging agents.

Causal influences in primate cerebral cortex during visual pattern discrimination

Anatomical studies of the visual cortex demonstrate the existence of feedforward, feedback and lateral pathways among multiple cortical areas. Yet relatively little evidence has previously been available to show the causal influences of these areas on one another during visual information processing. We simultaneously recorded event-related local field potentials (LFPs) from surface-to-depth bipolar electrodes at six sites in the ventral region of the right hemisphere visual cortex in a highly trained macaque monkey during performance of a visual pattern discrimination task. Applying a new statistical measure, the short-time directed transfer function (STDTF), to the LFP data set, we charted the changing strength and direction of causal influence between these cortical sites on a fraction-of-a-second time scale. We present results showing, for the first time, the dynamics of distinct feedforward, feedback and lateral influences in the ventral portion of the primate visual cortex during visual pattern processing.

Expression of cytochrome p450 and other biotransformation genes in fetal and adult human nasal mucosa.

Despite recent progress in the identification and characterization of numerous nasal biotransformation enzymes in laboratory animals, the expression of biotransformation genes in human nasal mucosa remains difficult to study. Given the potential role of nasal biotransformation enzymes in the metabolism of airborne chemicals, including fragrance compounds and therapeutic agents, as well as the potential interspecies differences between laboratory animals and humans, it would be highly desirable to identify those biotransformation genes that are expressed in human nasal mucosa. In this study, a global gene expression analysis was performed to compare biotransformation enzymes expressed in human fetal and adult nasal mucosa to those expressed in liver. The identities of a list of biotransformation genes with apparently nasal mucosa-selective expression were subsequently confirmed by RNA-polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and DNA sequencing of the PCR products. Further quantitative RNA-PCR experiments indicated that, in the fetus, aldehyde dehydrogenase 6 (ALDH6), CYP1B1, CYP2F1, CYP4B1, and UDP glucuronosyltransferase 2A1 are expressed preferentially in the nasal mucosa and that ALDH7, flavin-containing monooxygenase 1, and glutathione S-transferase P1 are at least as abundant in the nasal mucosa as in the liver. The nasal mucosal expression of CYP2E1 was also detected. These findings provide a basis for further explorations of the metabolic capacity of the human nasal mucosa for xenobiotic compounds.
