Title: In vivo positron emission tomography (PET) imaging with an alphavbeta6 specific peptide radiolabeled using 18F-"click" chemistry: evaluation and comparison with the corresponding 4-[18F]fluorobenzoyl- and 2-[18F]fluoropropionyl-peptides.

Abstract: Numerous radiolabeled peptides have been utilized for in vivo imaging of a variety of cell surface receptors. For applications in PET using [(18)F]fluorine, peptides are radiolabeled via a prosthetic group approach. We previously developed solution-phase (18)F-"click" radiolabeling and solid-phase radiolabeling using 4-[(18)F]fluorobenzoic and 2-[(18)F]fluoropropionic acids. Here we compare the three different radiolabeling approaches and report the effects on PET imaging and pharmacokinetics. The prosthetic groups did have an effect; metabolites with significantly different polarities were observed.
