ABSTRACT

PURPOSE:

6-O-(2-[18F]Fluoroethyl)-6-O-desmethyl-diprenorphine ([18F]FE-DPN) is regarded as a non-selective opioid receptor radiotracer. PROCEDURE Here, we report the first characterization of [18F]FE-DPN synthesized from the novel precursor, 6-O-(2-tosyloxyethoxy)-6-O-desmethyl-3-O-trityl-diprenorphine (TE-TDDPN), using a one-pot, two-step nucleophilic radiosynthesis to image opioid receptors in rats and mice using positron emission tomography.

RESULTS:

We also show that [18F]FE-DPN and [3H]DPN exhibit negligible brain uptake in mu opioid receptor (MOR) knockout mice.

CONCLUSIONS:

Taken together with prior findings, our results suggest that [18F]FE-DPN and [3H]DPN preferentially bind to MOR in rodents in vivo.
