Fluciclovine (18F) is a radiolabelled L-leucine derivative used to image tumors, especially in the prostate.
Fluciclovine (18F) is a radiolabelled L-leucine derivative used to image tumors, especially in the prostate.
Fluciclovine is transported into the prostate cancer cells via ASCT2 and LAT1 transporters. The activity of LAT1 gets increased in acidic pH, condition that is developed intra-tumorally at certain size. The uptake of fluciclovine presents an androgen-dependent dynamic in hormone sensitive cells.
Fluciclovine is indicated as a detection agent for positron emission tomography (PET) in men with suspected prostate cancer recurrence based on elevated blood prostate specific antigen (PSA) levels following prior treatment. The overexpression of L-type amino acid transporters such as LAT1 and LAT3 that mediate the uptake of essential amino acids has been extensively reported as a tumoral mechanism of cell growth.
