This invention provides compounds of general formula (I) or pharmaceutically acceptable salts, precursors, solvates thereof, and their use in the preparation of diagnostic drugs for
diabetic nephropathy, wherein (I) X is selected from carbon or
nitrogen; R 1 Selected from
hydrogen or
alkyl; R 2 It is one or more substituents on the
benzene ring or
pyridine ring, R 2 Independently selected from one or more of
hydrogen,
halogen, hydroxyl, cyano, nitro, amino, C1-C6
alkyl, C3-C6 cycloalkyl, C2-C6 alkenyl, C2-C6 alkoxy, C3-C6 cycloalkoxy, C1-C6 alkylamino, C3-C6 cycloalkylamino, halo-C1-C6
alkyl, halo-C3-C6 cycloalkyl, halo-C1-C6 alkoxy, halo-C3-C6 cycloalkoxy, halo-C1-C6 alkylamino, halo-C3-C6 cycloalkylamino, C6-C8
aryl or C5-C8 heteroaryl, and R 2 At least one atom of these substituents, or the entire
substituent, is replaced by a radioactive
nuclide. The diagnostic drugs and methods for
diabetic nephropathy of the present invention are non-invasive diagnostic techniques, with advantages such as less discomfort for the subjects and fewer contraindications.
