In vivo evaluation of 18F-labeled TCO for pre-targeted PET imaging in the brain

The tetrazine-trans-cylooctene cycloaddition using radiolabeled tetrazine or radiolabeled trans-cyclooctene (TCO) has been reported to be a very fast, selective and bioorthogonal reaction that could be useful for in vivo radiolabeling of molecules.

The tetrazine-trans-cylooctene cycloaddition using radiolabeled tetrazine or radiolabeled trans-cyclooctene (TCO) has been reported to be a very fast, selective and bioorthogonal reaction that could be useful for in vivo radiolabeling of molecules. We wanted to evaluate the in vivo biodistribution profile and brain uptake of 18F-labeled TCO ([18F]TCO) to assess its potential for pre-targeted imaging in the brain. Ausführliche Beschreibung
