Early and sensitive diagnosis of pancreatic diseases is a contemporary clin. challenge. Zinc level in pancreatic tissue and its secretion in pancreatic juice has long been considered a surrogate marker of pancreatic function. The objective of this study was to design a Zn-chelating imaging probe (ZCIP) which could be labeled with 99mTc radionuclide for imaging of pancreas using single photon emission tomog. (SPECT). We synthesized ZCIP as a bifunctional chelate consisting of diethylene triamine pentaacetic acid for 99mTc-chelation at one end and bispicolylethylamine for Zn-complexation at the other end. ZCIP was labeled with 99mTc by standard Sn2+-based reduction method. The 99mTc-labeled ZCIP was studied in normal mice (0.3 mCi) for SPECT imaging. We found that ZCIP consistently labeled with 99mTc radionuclide with over 95% efficiency. Addition of ZCIP altered the spectrum of standard dithizone-Zn complex, indicating its ability to chelate Zn. SPECT data demonstrated the ability of 99mTc-ZCIP to image pancreas with high sensitivity in a non-invasive manner; liver and spleen were the other major organs of 99mTc-ZCIP uptake. Based on these results, we conclude that 99mTc-ZCIP presents as a novel radiotracer for pancreas imaging for diagnosis of diseases such as pancreatitis.

Bis(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)amine(cas: 1539-42-0) is a secondary amine with two picolyl substituents. The compound is a tridentate ligand in coordination chemistry and commonly used to produce Zn-based chemosensors/probes, such as Zinpry.Recommanded Product: Bis(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)amine
