Radiobrominated benzimidazole-quinoline derivatives as Platelet-derived growth factor receptor beta (PDGFRβ) imaging probes
金沢大学疾患モデル総合研究センターPlatelet-derived growth factor receptor beta (PDGFRβ) affects in numerous human cancers and has been recognized as a promising molecular target for cancer therapies. The overexpression of PDGFRβ could be a biomarker for cancer diagnosis. Radiolabeled ligands having high affinity for the molecular target could be useful tools for the imaging of overexpressed receptors in tumors. In this study, we aimed to develop radiobrominated PDGFRβ ligands and evaluate their effectiveness as PDGFRβ imaging probes. The radiolabeled ligands were designed by modification of 1-{2-[5-(2-methoxyethoxy)-1H- benzo[d]imidazol-1-yl]quinolin-8-yl}piperidin-4-amine (1), which shows selective inhibition profile toward PDGFRβ. The bromine atom was introduced directly into C-5 of the quinoline group of 1, or indirectly by the conjugation of 1 with the 3-bromo benzoyl group. [77Br]1-{5-Bromo-2-[5-(2-methoxyethoxy)-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-1-yl]quinoline-8-yl}piperidin-4-amine ([77Br]2) and [77Br]-N-3-bromobenzoyl-1-{2-[5-(2-methoxyethoxy)-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-1-yl]quinolin-8-yl}-piperidin-4-amine ([77Br]3) were prepared using a bromodestannylation reaction. In a cellular uptake study, [77Br]2 and [77Br]3 more highly accumulatd in BxPC3-luc cells (PDGFRβ-positive) than in MCF7 cells (PDGFRβ-negative), and their accumulation was significantly reduced by pretreatment with inhibitors. In biodistribution experiments, [77Br]2 accumulation was higher than [77Br]3 accumulation at 1 h postinjection. These findings suggest that [76Br]2 is more promising for positron emission tomography (PET) imaging of PDGFRβ than [76Br]3. © 2018 The Author(s).CC-BY 4.
Synthesis and evaluation of radioiodinated 1-(2-[5-(2-methoxyethoxy)-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-1-yl]quinolin-8-yl)piperidin-4-amine derivatives for platelet-derived growth factor receptor β (PDGFRβ) imaging
金沢大学新学術創成研究機構Platelet-derived growth factor receptor β (PDGFRβ) is a transmembrane tyrosine kinase receptor and it is upregulated in various malignant tumors. Radiolabeled PDGFRβ inhibitors can be a convenient tool for the imaging of tumors overexpressing PDGFRβ. In this study, [125I]-1-(5-iodo-2-[5-(2-methoxyethoxy)-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-1-yl]quinoline-8-yl)piperidin-4-amine ([125I]IIQP) and [125I]-N-3-iodobenzoyl-1-(2-[5-(2-methoxyethoxy)-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-1-yl]quinolin-8-yl)-piperidin-4-amine ([125I]IB-IQP) were designed and synthesized, and their potential as PDGFRβ imaging agents was evaluated. In cellular uptake experiments, [125I]IIQP and [125I]IB-IQP showed higher uptake by PDGFRβ-positive cells than by PDGFRβ-negative cells, and the uptake in PDGFRβ-positive cells was inhibited by co-culture with PDGFRβ ligands. The biodistribution of both radiotracers in normal mice exhibited hepatobiliary excretion as the main route. In mice inoculated with BxPC3-luc (PDGFRβ-positive), the tumor uptake of radioactivity at 1h after the injection of [125I]IIQP was significantly higher than that after the injection of [125I]IB-IQP. These results indicated that [125I]IIQP can be a suitable PDGFRβ imaging agent. However, further modification of its structure will be required to obtain a more appropriate PDGFRβ-targeted imaging agent with a higher signal/noise ratio. © 2017.Embargo Period 12 month

Design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of radioiodinated benzo[d]imidazole-quinoline derivatives for platelet-derived growth factor receptor β (PDGFRβ) imaging.
Several malignant tumors and fibrotic diseases are associated with PDGFRβ overexpression and excessive signaling, making this receptor attractive for molecular targeting and imaging approaches. A series of benzo[d]imidazole-quinoline derivatives were designed and synthesized to develop radioiodinated compounds as PDGFRβ-specific imaging probes. The structure activity relationship (SAR) evaluation of the designed compounds was performed. Among them, 2-[5-(2-methoxyethoxy)-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-1-yl]-8-(piperazin-1-yl)quinoline (5a) and 4-{2-[5-(2-methoxyethoxy)-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-1-yl]quinolin-8-yl}morpholine (5d) exhibited a relatively high PDGFRβ-TK inhibitory potency, whereas iodinated 5a derivative 5-iodo-2-[5-(2-methoxyethoxy)-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-1-yl]-8-(piperazin-1-yl)quinoline (8) exhibited a superior inhibitory potency as PDGFRβ inhibitor than iodinated 5d derivative 4-{5-iodo-2-[5-(2-methoxyethoxy)-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-1-yl]quinolin-8-yl}morpholine (11). Furthermore, [I]8 and [I]11 were synthesized and evaluated for PDGFRβ radioligand ability, both in vitro and in vivo. Cellular uptake experiments showed that [I]8 had a higher uptake in BxPC3-luc cells as PDGFRβ-positive cells than [I]11. Incubation of [I]8 after pretreatment of PDGFRβ ligands significantly reduced the uptake of [I]8. In biodistribution experiments using tumor-bearing mice, [I]8 accumulation in the tumor 1 h postinjection was higher than that of the benzo[d]imidazol-quinoline derivative [I]IIQP, used in our previous research. These results indicate that [I]8 could be a promising PDGFRβ imaging agent. Although its clinical application requires further structural modifications, the results obtained in this research may be useful for the development of PDGFRβ-specific radioligands
