Abstract

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by reduced acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity in the post-mortem tissues of AD patients. Therefore, AChE has been an attractive target for the diagnosis of AD. In the present study, 5,7-dihydro-3-[2-(1-(phenylmethyl)-4-piperidinyl)ethyl]-6H-pyrrolo[3,2-f]-1,2-benzisoxazol-6-one (CP-118,954), a potent AChE inhibitor, was labelled with radioiodine and evaluated as an AChE imaging agent for SPECT.
