Evaluation of an Integrin αvβ3 Radiotracer, [18F]F-FPP-RGD2, for Monitoring Pharmacological Effects of Integrin αv siRNA in the NASH Liver.
Purpose: Integrin αv is a key regulator in the pathophysiology of hepatic fibrosis. In this study, we evaluated the potential utility of an integrin αvβ3 positron emission tomography (PET) radiotracer, 18F-labeled cyclic arginine-glycine-aspartic acid penta-peptide ([18F]F-FPP-RGD2), for detecting hepatic integrin αv and function in nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) model rats using integrin αv siRNA.
Methods: NASH model rats were produced by feeding a choline-deficient, low-methionine, high-fat diet for 8 weeks. PET/computerized tomography imaging and quantification of integrin αv protein, serum aspartate aminotransferase, and alanine aminotransferase were performed 1 week after single intravenous injection of integrin αv siRNA.
Results: Integrin αv siRNA (0.1 and 0.5 mg/kg) dose-dependently decreased hepatic integrin αv protein concentrations in control and NASH model rats. The hepatic mean standard uptake value of [18F]F-FPP-RGD2 was decreased dose-dependently by integrin αv siRNA. The mean standard uptake value was positively correlated with integrin αv protein levels in control and NASH model rats. Serum aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase concentrations were also decreased by siRNA injection and correlated with liver integrin αv protein expression levels in NASH model rats.
Conclusion: This study suggests that [18F]F-FPP-RGD2 PET imaging is a promising radiotracer for monitoring hepatic integrin αv protein levels and hepatic function in NASH pathology.
期刊介绍:
Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging (Nucl Med Mol Imaging) is an official journal of the Korean Society of Nuclear Medicine, which bimonthly publishes papers on February, April, June, August, October, and December about nuclear medicine and related sciences such as radiochemistry, radiopharmacy, dosimetry and pharmacokinetics / pharmacodynamics of radiopharmaceuticals, nuclear and molecular imaging analysis, nuclear and molecular imaging instrumentation, radiation biology and radionuclide therapy. The journal specially welcomes works of artificial intelligence applied to nuclear medicine. The journal will also welcome original works relating to molecular imaging research such as the development of molecular imaging probes, reporter imaging assays, imaging cell trafficking, imaging endo(exo)genous gene expression, and imaging signal transduction. Nucl Med Mol Imaging publishes the following types of papers: original articles, reviews, case reports, editorials, interesting images, and letters to the editor.
