Synthesis of fluorine-18 labeled sulfonureas as ?-cell imaging agents
2001
Tolbutamide (1) and glyburide (7) are hypoglycemic drugs used to stimulate insulin secretion in type 2 diabetic patients. We have synthesized their fluorine-18 labeled analogs, 1-[(4-[ 18 F]fluorobenzenesulfonyl)]-3-butyl]urea (p-[ 18 F]fluorotolbutamide, 3a) and N-{4-[β-(2-[ 18 F]fluoroethoxybenzene carboxamido)ethyl]benzenesulfonyl)-N'-cyclohexylurea (2-[ 18 F]fluoroethoxyglyburide, 6a) as β-cell imaging agents. Compound 3a was synthesized via two approaches: One-step synthesis via nucleophilic substitution of p-nitrotolbutamide (2) with K[ 18 F]/Kryptofix 2.2.2 in either CH 3 CN or DMSO gave a complicated mixture; a two-step synthesis via preparation and reaction of 4-[ 18 F]fluorobenzen…
Oxygen and glucose deprivation induces major dysfunction in the somatosensory cortex of the newborn rat
2005
The mechanisms and functional consequences of ischemia-induced injury during perinatal development are poorly understood. Subplate neurons (SPn) play a central role in early cortical development and a pathophysiological impairment of these neurons may have long-term detrimental effects on cortical function. The acute and long-term consequences of combined oxygen and glucose deprivation (OGD) were investigated in SPn and compared with OGD-induced dysfunction of immature layer V pyramidal cortical neurons (PCn) in somatosensory cortical slices from postnatal day (P)0-4 rats. OGD for 50 min followed by a 10-24-h period of normal oxygenation and glucose supply in vitro or in culture led to pron…
Risposta insulo-secretrice al carico endovenoso di tolbutamide
1968
Gli AA. hanno studiato il comportamento della risposta insulinemica dopo stimolazione con tolbutamide endovenosa in un piccolo gruppo di soggetti normali normosomici, obesi non diabetici e diabetici obesi. In tutti i soggetti il massimo aumento dell'insulinemia (determinata con metodo radio-immunologico) compare a 5 mp ed e maggiore negli obesi rispetto ai normali e ai diabetici. La caduta percentuale del picco insulinemico dimostra un andamento parallelo nei normali e negli obesi, mentre e molto piu lenta nei diabetici obesi. Vengono discusse le cause di questo comportamento e la natura dell'iperinsulinismo presente nell'obesita con e senza diminuita tolleranza agli idrati di carbonio.
