https://www.selleckchem.com/products/resatorvid.html Monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B) is an important enzyme regulating the levels of monoaminergic neurotransmitters. Selective MAO-B inhibitors have been labeled with carbon-11 or fluorine-18 to visualize the localization of MAO-B in vivo by positron emission tomography (PET) and thereby have been useful for studying neurodegenerative diseases. The aim of this study was to develop promising fluorine-18 labeled reversible MAO-B PET radioligands and their biological evaluation in vitro by autoradiography. Radiolabeling was achieved by classical one-step fluorine-18 nucleophilic substitution reaction. The stability and radiochemical yield was analyzed with HPLC. All five fluorine-18 labeled compounds were tested in human whole hemisphere autoradiography experiments. Five compounds (GEH200439, GEH200448, GEH200449, GEH200431A, and GEH200431B) were successfully radiolabeled with fluorine-18, and the incorporation yield of the fluorination reactions varied from 10 to 45% depending on the compound. The radiochemical purity was higher than 99% for all at the end of synthesis. Radioligands were found to be stable, with a radiochemical purity of >99% in a sterile phosphate buffered saline (pH = 7.4) over the duration of the study. The ARG binding density of only 18F-GEH200449 was consistent with known MAO-B expression in the human brain. Radiolabeling of five new fluorine-18 MAO-B reversible inhibitors was successfully accomplished. Compound 18F-GEH200449 binds specifically to MAO-B in vitro postmortem brain and could be a potential candidate for in vivo PET investigation.Urinary miRNAs are biomarkers that demonstrate considerable promise for the noninvasive diagnosis and prognosis of diseases. However, because of background noise resulting from complex physiological features of urine, instability of miRNAs, and their low concentration, accurate monitoring of miRNAs in urine is challenging. To address these limitations, we develope
