RESUMO

Specific radioligands for in vivo visualization and quantification of cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase 2A (PDE2A) by positron emission tomography (PET) are increasingly gaining interest in brain research. Herein we describe the synthesis, the 18F-labelling as well as the biological evaluation of our latest PDE2A (radio-)ligand 9-(5-Butoxy-2-fluorophenyl)-2-(2-([18F])fluoroethoxy)-7-methylimidazo[5,1-c]pyrido[2,3-e][1,2,4]triazine (([18F])TA5). It is the most potent PDE2A ligand out of our series of imidazopyridotriazine-based derivatives so far (IC50 hPDE2A = 3.0 nM; IC50 hPDE10A > 1000 nM). Radiolabelling was performed in a one-step procedure starting from the corresponding tosylate precursor. In vitro autoradiography on rat and pig brain slices displayed a homogenous and non-specific binding of the radioligand. Investigation of stability in vivo by reversed-phase HPLC (RP-HPLC) and micellar liquid chromatography (MLC) analyses of plasma and brain samples obtained from mice revealed a high fraction of one main radiometabolite. Hence, we concluded that [18F]TA5 is not appropriate for molecular imaging of PDE2A neither in vitro nor in vivo. Our ongoing work is focusing on further structurally modified compounds with enhanced metabolic stability.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the expression and distribution of phosphodiesterase (PDE) isoenzymes PDE1A, PDE2A, PDE4A, PDE4B, and PDE5A in human urethral tissue. METHODS: Specimens of penile urethra were obtained from male subjects who had undergone male-to-female sex reassignment surgery. Using immunohistochemistry (immunofluorescence), the occurrence of PDE1A, PDE2A, PDE4A, PDE4B, and PDE5A, the neuronal nitric oxide synthase, calcitonin gene-related peptide, and vasoactive intestinal polypeptide was examined in urethral sections. Cytosolic supernatants prepared from isolated human urethral tissue were subjected to Western blot analysis using specific anti-PDE antibodies. RESULTS: Immunosignals specific for PDE1A, 4A, 4B, and 5A were observed in the urethral smooth musculature. The smooth muscle bundles were seen innervated by slender nerve fibers, characterized by the expression of the neuronal nitric oxide synthase, calcitonin gene-related peptide, and vasoactive intestinal polypeptide. The expression of the PDE isoenzymes mentioned was confirmed by Western blotting. CONCLUSION: The results provide evidence for a significance of both the cyclic adenosine monophosphate and cyclic guanosine monophosphate signaling in the control of human urethral smooth muscle. The selective inhibition of PDE isoenzymes might represent a pharmacologic option to influence the function of smooth musculature in the human outflow region.
