Synthesis and Evaluation of a 64 Cu-Conjugate, a Selective δ-Opioid Receptor Positron Emission Tomography Imaging Agent.

Organic Letters 2017 April 22
Given the putative selectivity of the antagonist TIPP (Tyr-Tic-Phe-Phe) for δ-opioid receptors (DOP), this compound was selected for the design of a novel 64 Cu-radiolabeled potent and selective DOP positron emission tomography (PET) imaging agent. Ex vivo autoradiography of TIPPD-PEG-K(NOTA/64 Cu)-NH2 on rat brain sections produced a distribution pattern consistent with the known expression of DOP. Taken together, the in vitro and ex vivo data indicate that this 64 Cu-tracer holds promise for studying the DOP by means of PET.
