This invention relates to the field of tracer preparation technology, and specifically discloses a method for preparing a
positron emission
tomography (PET) tracer that penetrates the blood-brain barrier and targets hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF). The tracer is a compound with HIF targeting and rapid
brain tumor enrichment capabilities, and comprises the following parts: a) a short-half-life
radionuclide portion for
PET imaging; b) a HIF-1α
protein-
binding domain; and c) a lipophilic
linker / regulatory domain for modulating intracranial
pharmacokinetics. This method for preparing a
PET tracer that penetrates the blood-brain barrier and targets HIF integrates high-affinity targeting and
tumor microenvironment response mechanisms, giving it excellent targeting specificity, rapid brain penetration and enrichment capabilities, and ideal rapid systemic clearance characteristics, thereby obtaining high-contrast, low-background, high-quality images.
