Abstrakt: Purpose: Aluminum fluoride-18-labeled 1,4,7-triazacyclononane-1,4,7-triacetic acid-conjugated mannosylated dextran derivative (Al[ 18 F]F-NOTA-D10CM) is a new tracer for PET imaging. We report here on in vitro and in vivo validation of the tracer's ability to target the macrophage mannose receptor CD206.
Methods: First, the uptake of intravenously (i.v.) administered Al[ 18 F]F-NOTA-D10CM was compared between wild-type (WT) and CD206 -/- knockout (KO) mice. C57BL/6N mice were injected with complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA) in the left hind leg and the uptake of Al[ 18 F]F-NOTA-D10CM after i.v. or intradermal (i.d.) injection was studied at 5 and 14 days after CFA induction of inflammation. Healthy C57BL/6N mice were studied as controls. Mice underwent PET/CT on consecutive days with [ 18 F]FDG, i.v. Al[ 18 F]F-NOTA-D10CM, and i.d. Al[ 18 F]F-NOTA-D10CM. After the last imaging, Al[ 18 F]F-NOTA-D10CM was i.v. injected for an ex vivo biodistribution study and autoradiography of inflamed tissues. Blood plasma samples were analyzed using high-performance liquid chromatography. To evaluate the specificity of Al[ 18 F]F-NOTA-D10CM binding, an in vitro competitive displacement study was performed on inflamed tissue sections using autoradiography. CD206 expression was assessed by immunohistochemical staining.
Results: Compared with WT mice, the uptake of Al[ 18 F]F-NOTA-D10CM was significantly lower in several CD206 -/- KO mice tissues, including liver (SUV 8.21 ± 2.51 vs. 1.06 ± 0.16, P < 0.001) and bone marrow (SUV 1.63 ± 0.37 vs. 0.22 ± 0.05, P < 0.0001). The uptake of i.v. injected Al[ 18 F]F-NOTA-D10CM was significantly higher in inflamed ankle joint (SUV 0.48 ± 0.13 vs. 0.18 ± 0.05, P < 0.0001) and inflamed foot pad skin (SUV 0.41 ± 0.10 vs. 0.04 ± 0.01, P < 0.0001) than in the corresponding tissues in healthy mice. The i.d.-injected Al[ 18 F]F-NOTA-D10CM revealed differences between CFA-induced lymph node activation and lymph nodes in healthy mice. Ex vivo γ-counting, autoradiography, and immunohistochemistry supported the results, and a decrease of ~ 80% in the binding of Al[ 18 F]F-NOTA-D10CM in the displacement study with excess NOTA-D10CM confirmed that tracer binding was specific. At 60 min after i.v. injection, an average 96.70% of plasma radioactivity was derived from intact Al[ 18 F]F-NOTA-D10CM, indicating good in vivo stability. The uptake of Al[ 18 F]F-NOTA-D10CM into inflamed tissues was positively associated with the area percentage of CD206-positive staining.
Conclusion: The uptake of mannosylated dextran derivative Al[ 18 F]F-NOTA-D10CM correlated with CD206 expression and the tracer appears promising for inflammation imaging.
