To visualize the norepinephrine transporters (NETs) in various brain diseases, we developed radioiodinated (2S,αS)-2-(α-(2-iodophenoxy)benzyl)morpholine ((S,S)-IPBM). This radioligand achieved the basic requirements for NET imaging. In this study, we assessed the potential of radioiodinated (S,S)-IPBM as an imaging biomarker of NET to obtain diagnostic information about depression in relation to NET expression in the brain using a rat depression model. The ex vivo autoradiographic experiments using the (S,S)-[125I]IPBM showed significantly lower accumulation of radioactivity in the locus coeruleus (LC) and the anteroventricular thalamic nucleus (AVTN) of the depression group than in those of the control group. Consequently, in vitro autoradiographic experiments showed that NET maximum binding (Bmax) values in the LC and AVTN, known as NET-rich regions, were significantly decreased in the rat model of depression when compared to those of the control rats. In addition, there was an extremely good correlation between NET Bmax and (S,S)-IPBM accumulation ( r = .98), an indication of radioiodinated IPBM as a quantitative NET imaging biomarker. The reduction in(S,S)-[125I]IPBM accumulation in the rat model of depression correlated with that of NET density. These results suggest that (S,S)-[123I]IPBM has potential as an imaging biomarker of NET to obtain diagnostic information about major depression.

Background Lipid emulsion infusion reverses cardiovascular compromise due to local anesthetic overdose in laboratory and clinical settings. The authors compared resuscitation with lipid, epinephrine, and saline control in a rat model of bupivacaine-induced cardiac toxicity to determine whether lipid provides a benefit over epinephrine. Methods Bupivacaine, 20 mg/kg, was infused in rats anesthetized with isoflurane, producing asystole in all subjects. Ventilation with 100% oxygen and chest compressions were begun immediately, along with intravenous treatment with 30% lipid emulsion or saline (5-ml/kg bolus plus continuous infusion at 0.5 ml . kg . min) or epinephrine (30 microg/kg). Chest compressions were continued and boluses were repeated at 2.5 and 5 min until the native rate-pressure product was greater than 20% baseline. Electrocardiogram and arterial pressure were monitored continuously and at 10 min, arterial blood gas, central venous oxygen saturation, and blood lactate were measured. Effect size (Cohen d) was determined for comparisons at 10 min. Results Lipid infusion resulted in higher rate-pressure product (P < 0.001, d = 3.84), pH (P < 0.01, d = 3.78), arterial oxygen tension (P < 0.05, d = 2.8), and central venous oxygen saturation (P < 0.001, d = 4.9) at 10 min than did epinephrine. Epinephrine treatment caused higher lactate (P < 0.01, d = 1.48), persistent ventricular ectopy in all subjects, pulmonary edema in four of five rats, hypoxemia, and a mixed metabolic and respiratory acidosis by 10 min. Conclusions Hemodynamic and metabolic metrics during resuscitation with lipid surpassed those with epinephrine, which were no better than those seen in the saline control group. Further studies are required to optimize the clinical management of systemic local anesthetic toxicity.
