Syntheses of Precursors and Reference Compounds of the Melanin-Concentrating Hormone Receptor 1 (MCHR1) Tracers [11C]SNAP-7941 and [18F]FE@SNAP for Positron Emission Tomography

Syntheses of Precursors and Reference Compounds of the Melanin-Concentrating Hormone Receptor 1 (MCHR1) Tracers [11C]SNAP-7941 and [18F]FE@SNAP for Positron Emission Tomography

The MCH receptor has been revealed as a target of great interest in positron emission tomography imaging. The receptor′s eponymous substrate melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH) is a cyclic peptide hormone, which is located predominantly in the hypothalamus with a major influence on energy and weight...
