A kit-based aluminium-[18F]fluoride approach to radiolabelled microbubbles (2021)
Journal Article
Teh, J., Costa-Braga, M., Allott, L., Barnes, C., Hernandez-Gil, J., Tang, M., …Long, N. J. (2021). A kit-based aluminium-[18F]fluoride approach to radiolabelled microbubbles. Chemical communications : Chem comm / the Royal Society of Chemistry, https://doi.org/10.1039/d1cc04790f

The production of 18F-labelled microbubbles (MBs) via the aluminium-[18F]fluoride ([18F]AlF) radiolabelling method and facile inverse-electron-demand Diels-Alder (IEDDA) ‘click’ chemistry is reported. An [18F]AlF-NODA-labelled tetrazine was synthesis... Read More about A kit-based aluminium-[18F]fluoride approach to radiolabelled microbubbles.

The aluminium-[18F]fluoride revolution: simple radiochemistry with a big impact for radiolabelled biomolecules (2021)
Journal Article
Archibald, S. J., & Allott, L. (2021). The aluminium-[18F]fluoride revolution: simple radiochemistry with a big impact for radiolabelled biomolecules. EJNMMI Radiopharmacy and Chemistry, 6(1), Article 30. https://doi.org/10.1186/s41181-021-00141-0

The aluminium-[18F]fluoride ([18F]AlF) radiolabelling method combines the favourable decay characteristics of fluorine-18 with the convenience and familiarity of metal-based radiochemistry and has been used to parallel gallium-68 radiopharmaceutical...

Novel Non-Congeneric Derivatives of the Choline Kinase Alpha Inhibitor ICL-CCIC-0019 (2021)
Journal Article
Wang, N., Brickute, D., Braga, M., Barnes, C., Lu, H., Allott, L., & Aboagye, E. O. (2021). Novel Non-Congeneric Derivatives of the Choline Kinase Alpha Inhibitor ICL-CCIC-0019. Pharmaceutics, 13(7), Article 1078. https://doi.org/10.3390/pharmaceutics13071078

Choline kinase alpha (CHKA) is a promising target for the development of cancer therapeutics. We have previously reported ICL-CCIC-0019, a potent CHKA inhibitor with high cellular activity but with some unfavorable pharmacological properties. In this...

Detecting hypoxia in vitro using 18F-pretargeted IEDDA “click” chemistry in live cells (2021)
Journal Article
Allott, L., Chen, C., Braga, M., Leung, S. F. J., Wang, N., Barnes, C., …Aboagye, E. O. (in press). Detecting hypoxia in vitro using 18F-pretargeted IEDDA “click” chemistry in live cells. RSC advances, 11(33), 20335-20341. https://doi.org/10.1039/d1ra02482e

We have exemplified a pretargeted approach to interrogate hypoxia in live cells using radioactive bioorthogonal inverse electron demand Diels–Alder (IEDDA) “click” chemistry. Our novel 18F-tetrazine probe ([18F]FB-Tz) and 2-nitroimidazole-based TCO t... Read More about Detecting hypoxia in vitro using 18F-pretargeted IEDDA “click” chemistry in live cells.

Radiolabelling an 18F biologic via facile IEDDA “click” chemistry on the GE FASTLab™ platform (2021)
Journal Article
