Application

Altanserin hydrochloride hydrate has been used in the pretreatment of rat brain samples and as a non-radioactive control in the calibration curve preparation for quantifying [18F]altanserin in high-performance liquid chromatography.[1]
Altanserin hydrochloride hydrate is a specific 5-HT2/serotonergic antagonist and has been used in a study to assess serotonin release capacity in the human brain.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Altanserin hydrochloride hydrate is a specific 5-HT2/serotonergic antagonist.
The radioligand of altanserin, [18F]altanserin is useful as a positron emission tomography (PET)-radioligand for the visualization and quantification of serotonin2A (5-HT2A) receptors.[2]

Currently, [18F] altanserin is the most frequently used PET-radioligand for serotonin2A (5-HT2A) receptor imaging in the human brain but has never been validated in dogs. In vivo imaging of this receptor in the canine brain could improve diagnosis and therapy

Behavioral and cellular studies indicate that serotonin interacting with the 5-HT2a receptor (5-HT2aR) is involved in cognitive processes supporting working memory (WM). However, 5-HT receptor neuroimaging studies directly relating WM-induced neuronal activations to concomitant changes in the availability of 5-HT

[(18)F]Altanserin, an important PET radioligand for the in vivo imaging of the 5-HT(2A) receptor, was synthesized from its precursor nitro-altanserin in DMF or DMSO at high temperatures of 150 degrees C in an overall radiochemical yield (EOB) of 23-25% after

Although alterations of serotonin (5-HT) system functioning have been proposed for a variety of psychiatric disorders, a direct method quantitatively assessing 5-HT release capacity in the living human brain is still lacking. Therefore, we evaluated a novel method to assess

Sex-hormones influence brain function and are likely to play a role in the gender predisposition to mood and anxiety disorders. Acute fluctuations of sex-hormone levels including hormonal replacement therapy appear to affect serotonergic neurotransmission, but it is unknown if baseline
