In vivo pharmacokinetic and brain binding characteristics of (+)-[(11)C]A-69024, a high-affinity-D1-selective dopamine receptor antagonist, were assessed with micro-PET and beta-microprobes in the rat and PET in the baboon. The biodistribution of (+)-[(11)C]A-69024 in rats and baboons showed a rapid brain uptake (reaching a maximal value at 5 and 15 min postinjection in rats and baboons, respectively), followed by a slow wash out. The region/cerebellum concentration ratio was characterized by a fourfold higher uptake in striatum and a twofold higher uptake in cortical regions, consistent with in vivo specific binding of the radiotracer in these cerebral regions. Furthermore, this specific (+)-[(11)C]A-69024 binding significantly correlated with the reported in vitro distribution of dopamine D1-receptors. Finally, the specific uptake of the tracer in the striatum and cortical regions was completely prevented by either a pretreatment with large doses of nonradioactive (+/-)A-69024 or of the D1-selective antagonist SCH23390, resulting in a similar uptake in the reference region (cerebellum) and in other brain regions. Thus, (+)-[(11)C]A-69024 appears to be a specific and enantioselective radioligand to visualize and quantify brain dopamine D1 receptors in vivo using positron emission tomography.

(+)-[76Br]A-69024 is a specific and enantioselective dopamine D1 receptor radioligand. The Bmax of (+)-[76Br]A-69024 measured in vitro on rat striatum membranes was 320 +/- 25 fmoles/mg protein with an apparent dissociation constant of Kd = 0.6 +/- 0.1 nM. The inactive enantiomer, (-)-[76Br]A-69024, displayed no affinity in the same assay. In vivo, the biodistribution (+)-[76Br]A-69024 in rats showed a rapid and high uptake in the striatum (1% ID/g), followed by a slow wash out. The striatum/cerebellum concentration ratio (index of specific binding) reached a maximum value of 10 at 60 minutes post injection. A tissue to cerebellum ratio of 2.8 and 1.5 was also observed for frontal and posterior cortex respectively. With the pharmacologically inactive enantiomer, (-)-[76Br]A-69024, the brain uptake was determined to be non specific since a striatum/cerebellum ratio of approximately 1 was observed throughout the time course of the experiment. The selectivity of (+)-[76Br]A-69024 uptake was demonstrated in competition experiments. The specific uptake in the striatum and cortical regions was completely prevented after administration of the D1 antagonist SCH 23390. Pre-treatment of rats with unlabelled (+)A-69024 also displayed the same regional inhibition of (+)-[76Br]A-69024 uptake. Pre-administration of rats with spiperone (D2) and ketanserin (5-HT2/5-HT2C) showed no inhibitory effect on (+)-[76Br]A-69024 uptake in any brain region. Using (+)-[76Br]A-69024, PET study in baboon demonstrated a preferential accumulation of the radioactivity in the striatum, frontal and posterior cortex which was displaced to the level of the cerebellum by SCH 23390. These results suggest that (+)-[76Br]A-69024 may deserve further investigation as a potential radioligand for studying striatal and cortical dopamine D1 receptors using PET.

(+)-2-[123I] A-69024, [(+)-1-(2-[123I] iodo-4,5-dimethoxy-benzyl)-7-hydroxy-6-methoxy-2-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline], is a specific and enantioselective dopamine D1 receptor radioligand. The in vivo biodistribution of this radioligand in rats showed high brain uptake and a distribution consistent with the density of dopamine D1 receptors. Highest uptake was observed in the striatum (0.65 %ID/g) at 5 min followed by clearance. As a measure of specificity the striatum/cerebellar ratio reached a maximum of 3.9 at 30 min post-injection. Radioactivity in the striatum was reduced by 68% by pre-administration of the D1 antagonist SCH 23390. Pre-administration of other dopamine binding drugs, spiperone (D2), 7-OH-DPAT (D3), and clozapine (D4) displayed no inhibitory effect on (+)-2-[123I]A-69024 accumulation in any brain region. Ketanserin (5-HT2/5-HT2C) and haloperidol (D2 receptor antagonist/sigma receptor ligand) also displayed no inhibitory effect in any brain region studied. With the pharmacologically inactive enantiomer, (-)-2-[123I]A-69024, the brain uptake was determined to be non-specific since a striatum/cerebellar ratio of near 1 was observed throughout the time course of the experiment. (+)-2-[123I]A-69024 displays enantioselectivity for dopamine D1 receptors and may deserve further investigation as a possible SPECT radioligand.
