Synthesis of Biphenyltrienes as Probes for β-Amyloid Plaques
摘要:
We report a series of p-hydroxy-, p-amino-, p-monomethylamino-, and p-monofluoroethylamino-substituted biphenyltrienes that displayed high binding affinities to beta-amyloid plaques. In an in vitro binding assay using postmortem brain homogenates of Alzheimer's patients and [I-125] 9, the triene compounds showed excellent binding affinities. When labeled with suitable radionuclides, they are useful as in vivo imaging agents for detecting A beta plaques in the brains of Alzheimer's patients.

This invention relates to a method of imaging amyloid deposits and to labeled compounds, and methods of making labeled compounds useful in imaging amyloid deposits. This invention also relates to compounds, and methods of making compounds for inhibiting the aggregation of amyloid proteins to form amyloid deposits, and a method of delivering a therapeutic agent to amyloid deposits.
