Department of Chemistry Seminar Announcement Date/Time/VenueTitle/Speaker 12 Jan (Wed) 11am – S8 Level 3 Executive Classroom PET in Neuroscience and Drug Development Professor Christer Halldin Director, Karolinska Institutet, PET Centre, Sweden Host : Assoc Prof Chang Young-Tae About the Speaker Abstract All are Welcome Professor Christer Halldin is currently a Professor of Medicinal Radiochemistry and Director of the Karolinska Institutet PET Centre at the Department of Clinical Neuroscience, Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm, Sweden. Prof Halldin graduated in 1978 with a B.Sc. in Chemistry and thereafter in 1984 with a Ph.D. in Organic Chemistry and Radiochemistry. The earlier appointments that Prof Halldin held included Postdoctoral Scientist at Brookhaven National Laboratory, USA, Radiochemistry ( ) and Assistant Professor of Medicinal Radiochemistry, Karolinska Institutet ( ). Prof Halldin was appointed Professor in Prof Halldin was awarded the Marie Curie Award in years 1992, 2001, 2005 and 2009 ; and he has more than 380 original articles on his track record. PET provides a new way to image the function of a target and by elevating the mass, to pharmacologically modify the function of the target. The main applications of radioligands in brain research concern human neuropsychopharmacology and the discovery and development of novel drugs to be used in the therapy of psychiatric and neurological disorders. A basic problem in PET brain receptor studies is the lack of useful radioligands with ideal binding characteristics. Prerequisite criteria, such as high affinity and selectivity, need to be satisfied for a radioligand to reveal target binding sites in vivo. During the past decade over a hundred neurotransmitters have been identified in the human brain. Most of the currently used drugs for the treatment of psychiatric and neurological disorders interact with central neurotransmission. Several receptor subtypes, transmitter carriers, and enzymes have proven to be useful targets for drug treatment. Molecular biological techniques have now revealed the existence of hundreds of novel targets for which little or no prior pharmacological or functional data existed. Due to the lack of data on the functional significance of these sites, pharmacologists are now challenged to find the physiological roles of these receptors and identify selective agents and possible therapeutic indications. During the past decade various 11 C- and 18 F- labeled radioligands have been developed for labeling some of the major central neuroreceptor systems. There is still a need to develop pure selective PET tracers for all the targets of the human brain. This presentation will review recent examples in neuroreceptor radioligand development and the clinical potential of in vivo imaging of neurotransmitter systems. This review will focus on studies with PET radiotracers in neuroscience and neuropsychopharmacological drug development. A basic problem in the discovery and development of novel drugs to be used in for example the therapy of neurological and psychiatric disorders is the absence of relevant in vitro or in vivo animal models that can yield results to be extrapolated to man. Drug research now benefits from the fast development of functional imaging techniques such as PET.
