Page/Page column 39-40, (2008/12/08)
Disclosed herein are novel radiolabeled nucleosides and methods for detecting cellular proliferation in a mammal, the method comprising administrating an effective amount of a radiolabeled nucleoside; the method comprising: a) administering to the mammal a diagnostically effective amount of the nucleoside to the mammal; b) allowing the nucleoside to distribute into the effective tissue; and c) imaging the tissue, wherein an increase in binding of the compound to tissue compared to a normal control level of binding indicates that the mammal is suffering from a disease involving cellular proliferation.

Highly selective arabinofuranosyl nucleosides, which inhibit the mitochondrial thymidine kinase (TK-2) without affecting the closely related herpes simplex virus type 1 thymidine kinase (HSV-1 TK), varicella-zoster virus thymidine kinase (VZV-TK), cytosolic thymidine kinase (TK-1) or the multifunctional Drosophila melanogaster deoxyribonucleoside kinase (Dm-dNK), have been obtained. SAR studies indicate a close relation between the length of the substituent at the 2′ position of the arabinofuranosyl moiety and the inhibitory activity.
