Article Title: | Synthesis and evaluation of [18F] labeled pyrimidine nucleosides for positron emission tomography imaging of herpes simplex virus 1 thymidine kinase gene expression |
Abstract: | Synthesis of three novel 2′-deoxy-2′-[18F]fluoro-1- β-D-arabinofuranosyluracil derivatives [18F]FPAU, [ 18F]-FBrVAU, and [18F]FTMAU is reported. The compounds were synthesized by coupling of 1-bromo-2-deoxy-2-fluoro sugars with corresponding silylated uracil derivatives. In vitro cell uptake indicated that all three compounds are taken up selectively in RG2TK+ cells with negligible uptake in RG2 cells. The results indicate that [18F]FBrVAU and [ 18F]FTMAU have better uptake profiles in comparison to [ 18F]FPAU and have potential as PET probes for imaging HSV1-tk gene expression. © 2006 American Chemical Society. |
