主要成果:
- 用[68Ga]GaCl3成功对DOTA-AeK进行放射性标记,从而产生高放射性化学纯度 (≥95%).
- 良好的体外稳定性和[68Ga]Ga-DOTA-AeK的低蛋白质结合.
- 在E. coli或S. aureus中没有确的[68Ga]Ga-DOTA-AeK在体内细胞内吸收.
- AeK-NBD在活体细菌中显示出显著更高的细胞内结合.
- 在感染部位的局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部局部
结论:
- 对于成功的细菌特异性PET/CT成像,AeK的细胞内结合至关重要.
- [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-AeK不适合用于跟踪细菌的AeK吸收,这是因为庞大的DOTA化剂可能阻碍了膜传输.
- 未来的优化应该探索替代的AeK结构,这些结构可以被放射性标记,使用寿命较短的同位素,如-18 (18F) 或碳-11 (11C).

Positron emission tomography (PET) is a medical imaging technique involving radiopharmaceuticals — substances that emit short-lived radiation. Although the first PET scanner was introduced in 1961, it took 15 more years before radiopharmaceuticals were combined with the technique and revolutionized its potential.
One of the main requirements of a PET scan is a positron-emitting radioisotope, which is produced in a cyclotron and then attached to a substance used by the part of the body...
