Effects of structural differences between radioiodine-labeled 1-(2'-fluoro-2'-deoxy-D-arabinofuranosyl)-5-iodouracil (FIAU) and 1-(2'-fluoro-2'-deoxy-d-ribofuranosyl)-5-iodouracil (FIRU) on HSV1-TK reporter gene imaging. 2010

The goal of this investigation was to evaluate the effects of structural differences between FIAU and FIRU on their ability to serve as a potential tracer for reporter gene imaging. To examine the characteristics of different configurations of FIAU and FIRU, a series of evaluations were done on HSV1-TK gene-expressing cells and on mice with HSV1-TK gene-expressing tumor. The results showed that, as an imaging agent for HSV1-TK-expressing cells, radiolabeled FIAU was more efficient for in vivo imaging than FIRU.

D018259	Herpesvirus 1, Human	The type species of SIMPLEXVIRUS causing most forms of non-genital herpes simplex in humans. Primary infection occurs mainly in infants and young children and then the virus becomes latent in the dorsal root ganglion. It then is periodically reactivated throughout life causing mostly benign conditions.	HSV-1,Herpes Simplex Virus 1,HHV-1,Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1,Herpesvirus 1 (alpha), Human,Human Herpesvirus 1
