Improved Visualization and Specific Binding for Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor Subtype 1 (mGluR1) Using [11C]ITMM with Ultra-High Specific Activity in Small-Animal PET.

Metabotropic glutamate receptor subtype 1 (mGluR1) is a crucial target in the development of new medications to treat central nervous system (CNS) disorders. Recently, we developed N-[4-[6-(isopropylamino)pyrimidin-4-yl]-1,3-thiazol-2-yl]-4-[11C]methoxy-N-methyl-benzamide ([11C]ITMM) as a useful pos...
