Abstract

During the development of in vivo amyloid imaging agents, an effort was made to use micro-positron emission tomography (PET) imaging in the presenilin-1 (PS1)/amyloid precursor protein (APP) transgenic mouse model of CNS amyloid deposition to screen new compounds and further study Pittsburgh Compound-B (PIB), a PET tracer that has been shown to be retained well in amyloid-containing areas of Alzheimer's disease (AD) brain. Unexpectedly, we saw no significant retention of PIB in this model even at 12 months of age when amyloid deposition in the PS1/APP mouse typically exceeds that seen in AD. This study describes a series of ex vivo and postmortem in vitro studies designed to explain this low retention.Ex vivo brain pharmacokinetic studies confirmed the low in vivo PIB retention observed in micro-PET experiments.In vitro binding studies showed that PS1/APP brain tissue contained less than one high-affinity (Kd= 1-2 n m) PIB binding site per 1000 molecules of amyloid-β (Aβ), whereas AD brain contained >500 PIB binding sites per 1000 molecules of Aβ. Synthetic Aβ closely resembled PS1/APP brain in having less than one high-affinity PIB binding site per 1000 molecules of Aβ, although the characteristics of the few high-affinity PIB binding sites found on synthetic Aβ were very similar to those found in AD brain. We hypothesize that differences in the time course of deposition or tissue factors present during deposition lead to differences in secondary structure between Aβ deposited in AD brain and either synthetic Aβ or Aβ deposited in PS1/APP brain.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
