intensely stained β-amyloid plaques. In biodistrubution experiments using normal mice, they displayed high uptake in the brain ranging from 2.9 to 4.2%ID/g at 2 min postinjection. The radioactivity washed out from the brain rapidly (1.3–2.0%ID/g at 30 min), which is highly desirable for β-amyloid imaging agents. FPEG flavones may be potential PET imaging agents for β-amyloid plaques in Alzheimer’s brains.

A composition for diagnosing amyloid-related diseases, which comprises a flavone derivative, a chalcone derivative, a styrylchromone derivative, or a coumarin derivative, is provided. These compounds have high binding specificity to an amyloid β protein, high permeability to a blood-brain barrier, and ability to rapidly disappear from sites other than cerebral senile plaque. Accordingly, the composition of the present invention using these compounds enables the diagnosis of amyloid-related diseases with high precision.
