Chiral resolution of serial potent and selective ?1 ligands and biological evaluation of (-)-[18F]TZ3108 in rodent and the nonhuman primate brain.

ABSTRACT: Twelve optically pure enantiomers were obtained using either crystallization or chiral high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) separation methodologies to resolve six racemic sigma-1 (?1) receptor ligands. The in vitro binding affinities of each enantiomer for ?1, ?2 receptors and vesicular acetylcholine transporter (VAChT) were determined. Out of the 12 optically pure enantiomers, five displayed very high affinities for ?1 (Ki<2nM) and high selectivity for ?1 versus ?2 and VAChT (>100-fold). The minus enantiomer, (-)-14a ((-)-TZ3108) (Ki-?1=1.8±0.4nM, Ki-?2=6960±810nM, Ki-VAChT=980±87nM), was chosen for radiolabeling and further in vivo evaluation in rodents and nonhuman primates (NHPs). A biodistribution study in Sprague Dawley rats showed brain uptake (%ID/gram) of (-)-[18F]TZ3108 reached 1.285±0.062 at 5min and 0.802±0.129 at 120min. NHP microPET imaging studies revealed higher brain uptake of (-)-[18F]TZ3108 and more favorable pharmacokinetics compared to its racemic counterpart. Pretreatment of the animal using two structurally different ?1 ligands significantly decreased accumulation of (-)-[18F]TZ3108 in the brain. Together, our in vivo evaluation results suggest that (-)-[18F]TZ3108 is a promising positron emission tomography (PET) tracer for quantifying ?1 receptor in the brain.

Project description:Parthenogenesis is the biological phenomenon by which embryonic development is initiated without male contribution. Whereas parthenogenesis is a common mode of reproduction in lower organisms, the mammalian parthenote fails to produce a successful pregnancy. We herein describe in vitro parthenogenetic development of monkey (Macaca fascicularis) eggs to the blastocyst stage, and their use to create a pluripotent line of stem cells. These monkey stem cells (Cyno-1 cells) are positive for telomerase activity and are immunoreactive for alkaline phosphatase, octamer-binding transcription factor 4 (Oct-4), stage-specific embryonic antigen 4 (SSEA-4), tumor rejection antigen 1-60 (TRA 1-60), and tumor rejection antigen 1-81 (TRA 1-81) (traditional markers of human embryonic stem cells). They have a normal chromosome karyotype (40 + 2) and can be maintained in vitro in an undifferentiated state for extended periods of time. Cyno-1 cells can be differentiated in vitro into dopaminergic and serotonergic neurons, contractile cardiomyocyte-like cells, smooth muscle, ciliated epithelia, and adipocytes. When Cyno-1 cells were injected into severe combined immunodeficient mice, teratomas with derivatives from all three embryonic germ layers were obtained. When grown on fibronectin/laminin-coated plates and in neural progenitor medium, Cyno-1 cells assume a neural precursor phenotype (immunoreactive for nestin). However, these cells remain proliferative and express no functional ion channels. When transferred to differentiation conditions, the nestin-positive precursors assume neuronal and epithelial morphologies. Over time, these cells acquire electrophysiological characteristics of functional neurons (appearance of tetrodotoxin-sensitive, voltage-dependent sodium channels). These results suggest that stem cells derived from the parthenogenetically activated nonhuman primate egg provide a potential source for autologous cell therapy in the female and bypass the need for creating a competent embryo.
