Abstract
In the current issue of American Journal of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging, Vasdev et al. presented a work entitled "In Vitro Evaluation of PET Radiotracers for Imaging Synaptic Density, the Acetylcholine Transporter, AMPA-tarp-γ8 and Muscarinic M4 receptors in Alzheimer's disease". In which, in vitro autoradiography studies using radioligands were employed as a valuable tool to gain more insights for potential clinical translation. In this invited perspective, we would like to briefly introduce the current state of AD diagnosis, especially PET imaging on synapse, and highlight the advances of PET imaging in pre-clinic and clinic that might assist on precise therapy in the future.
在本期《美国核医学与分子成像杂志》(American Journal of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging)上,Vasdev 等人发表了一篇题为 "体外评估 PET 放射性标记物在阿尔茨海默病中的突触密度、乙酰胆碱转运体、AMPA-tarp-γ8 和 M4 肌卡宁受体成像 "的论文。其中,利用放射配体进行的体外自显影研究是一种宝贵的工具,可为潜在的临床转化提供更多的见解。在这篇特邀论文中,我们想简要介绍一下目前的阿尔茨海默病诊断状况,尤其是突触的 PET 成像,并强调 PET 成像在临床前和临床中的进展,这可能有助于未来的精确治疗。
期刊介绍:
The scope of AJNMMI encompasses all areas of molecular imaging, including but not limited to: positron emission tomography (PET), single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), molecular magnetic resonance imaging, magnetic resonance spectroscopy, optical bioluminescence, optical fluorescence, targeted ultrasound, photoacoustic imaging, etc. AJNMMI welcomes original and review articles on both clinical investigation and preclinical research. Occasionally, special topic issues, short communications, editorials, and invited perspectives will also be published. Manuscripts, including figures and tables, must be original and not under consideration by another journal.
