  • Abstract
    The synthesis of a new lipophilic thioflavin-T analogue (2-[4′-(methylamino)phenyl]benzothiazole, 6) with high affinity for amyloid is reported. Intravenous injection of [11C]-labeled 6 in control mice resulted in high brain uptake. Amyloid deposits were imaged with multiphoton microscopy in the brains of living transgenic mice following the systemic injection of unlabeled 6. [11C]6 is a promising amyloid imaging agent for Alzheimerʹs disease.
