Summary:

Aim: As results of cardiac biopsies suggest, myocardial β1-adrenoceptor density is reduced in patients with chronic heart failure. However, changes in cardiac β2-adrenoceptors vary. With suitable radiopharmaceuticals single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and positron emission tomography (PET) offer the opportunity to assess β-adrenoceptors non-invasively. Among the novel racemic analogues of the established β1-selective adrenoceptor antagonist ICI 89.406 the iodinated 2-I-ICI-H showed high affinity and selectivity to β1-adrenoceptors in murine ventricular membranes. The aim of this study was its evaluation as a putative sub-type selective β1-adrenergic radioligand in cardiac imaging. Methods: Competition studies in vitro and in vivo were used to investigate the kinetics of 2-I-ICI-H binding to cardiac β-adrenoceptors in mice and rats. In addition, the radiosynthesis of 2-125I-ICI-H from the silylated precursor 2-SiMe3-ICI-H was established. The specific activity was 80 GBq/µmol, the radiochemical yield ranged from 70 to 80%.

Results: The unlabelled compound 2-I-ICI-H showed high β1-selectivity and -affinity in the in vitro competition studies. In vivo biodistribution studies apparently showed low affinity to cardiac β-adrenoceptors. The radiolabelled counterpart 2-125I-ICI-H showed a high degree of non-specific binding in vitro and no specific binding to cardiac β1-adrenoceptors in vivo. Conclusion: Because of its high non-specific binding 2-125I-ICI-H is no suitable radiotracer for imaging in vivo.

Zusammenfassung:

Ziel: Bei chronischer Herzinsuffizienz existieren bioptische Hinweise auf eine Verminderung der kardialen β1-Adrenozeptoren bei variablen Ergebnissen für die β2-Adrenozeptoren. SPECT und PET ermöglichen mit geeigneten Radiopharmaka, die β-Adrenozeptoren nicht invasiv zu quantifizieren. Von den neu synthetisierten racemischen Derivaten des β1-selektiven AdrenozeptorAntagonisten ICI 89.406 zeigte in Untersuchungen an Membranpräparaten des Mausventrikels das iodierte Derivat 2-I-ICI-H eine hohe β1-Affinität und -Selektivität. Ziel dieser Studie war die Evaluation von 2-I-ICI-H als möglichen subtypselektiven β1-Adrenozeptorradioliganden der kardialen Bildgebung. Methode: Die Bindungskinetik des 2-I-ICI-H an β-Adrenozeptoren wurde in vitro und in vivo an Mäusen und Ratten in Kompetitionsstudien untersucht. Die Radiosynthese von 2-125I-ICI-H aus dem silylierten Vorläufer 2-SiMe3-ICI-H wurde etabliert (spezifische Aktivität: 80 GBq/µmol; radiochemische Ausbeute: 70-80%). Ergebnisse: Nicht radioaktives 2-I-ICI-H zeigte in In-vitro-Kompetitionsstudien eine hohe β1-Selektivität und -Affinität. Allerdings ergaben In-vivo-Biodistributionsstudien eine geringe apparente Affinität zu den kardialen β-Adrenozeptoren. Die entsprechende radioiodierte Verbindung (2-125I -ICI-H) wurde in vitro fast und in vivo als völlig unspezifisch an kardiale β1-Adrenozeptoren gebunden. Schlussfolgerung: Die Vorläufersubstanz 2-SiMe3-ICI-H wurde mit Iod-125 markiert, um den β1-Adrenozeptorantagonisten 2-125I-ICI-H zu erhalten, der wegen seiner unspezifischen Bindung in vivo als Radiotracer ungeeignet scheint.
