Radiohalogens for imaging and therapy

Abstract: Radiohalogens play a very important role in radiopharmaceuticals used for medical imaging (now referred to as molecular imaging) and therapy applications. Development of new radiopharmaceuticals that have radiohalogens incorporated requires an understanding of parameters that are unique to chemistry involving these radionuclides. Those parameters include requirement for production and purification of the halogen radionuclides, as well as development of reaction conditions for use with high specific activity sh… Show more

“…[1]. These reactions have found many uses including: radioactive labeling [2], heavy atom addition for diffraction phasing [3], and structural studies relying on differential reactivity [4], among many others [5][6][7]. Surprisingly, iodination in proteins occurs with a greater degree of selectivity than one might expect and preferentially occurs at tyrosine residues, which can be singly or doubly iodinated, as shown in Scheme 1.…”

“…Administered dose is usually calculated with the goal of administering approximately 70-120 Gy (7000-12000 rad) to the thyroid gland [4]. The calculation is made as follows: administered microcuries = μCi/g desired × gland weight (g) × 100 ÷ percent uptake (24 hours).…”

“…On the deep aspect of the thyroid lie the larynx and trachea, with the pharynx and oesophagus behind and the carotid sheath on either side. Two nerves lie in close relationship to the gland; in the groove between the trachea and oesophagus lies the recurrent laryngeal nerve and deep to the upper pole lies the external branch of the superior laryngeal nerve passing to the cricothyroid muscle [1][2][3][4].…”

“…This is due to the remarkable physical properties of several iodine radioisotopes (e.g., 125 I, 123 I, 124 I, and 131 I), which allow a broad range of applications from biochemical research to nuclear medicine. 1 For the radioiodination of compounds with no aromatic group or that are sensitive to radiolabeling conditions, the most useful technique remains the use of iodine-containing prosthetic groups. Accordingly, a variety of radioiodinated bifunctional agents have been developed that exploit conjugation strategies such as acylation, hydrazone, imidate, or carbamate formation or thiol alkylation.…”

“…It should be noted that this radioisotope was used as a radiolabeling model for iodine-131 (t 1 18 F]FIB-PRGD 2 , respectively. For these reactions, carried out in mild conditions, many parameters were optimized, such as the pH, the temperature and duration of reaction, the total volume of solvent, and the ratio between the volumes of acetonitrile (TFIB) and buffer (peptide).…”
