Age-corrected baseline IBZM binding in the striatum was significantly lower in treatment responders than in depressed non-responders and control subjects.
Furthermore, in the depressive group there was a significant linear correlation between treatment response and change of D2 receptor binding during treatment in the basal ganglia.
IBZM binding increased in treatment responders and decreased in non-responders.

The aim of the study was to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of FP-CIT and IBZM SPET for detection of CBD.
In IBZM SPET an reduced D2 receptor binding was found in 3 of 8 CBD patients using the iteratively determined discrimination thresholds of 1.5 for striatal and putaminal BRs and of 1.0 for putamen-to-caudate ratio.
In 6 of 8 patients a reduced glucose metabolism was observed in the parietal lobes and thalamus.

Specific IBZM binding was calculated as the region of interest to colcerebellum ratio.
In the frontal lobe, the average IBZM binding decreased by 11% from 1.15 ± 0.04 before to 1.03 ± 0.11 after treatment, whereas in the basal ganglia the average IBZM binding remained unchanged.
Clinical improvement of depressive symptoms might be associated with a decrease of IBZM binding to D2 receptors corresponding to an increase in synaptic dopamine concentration or a downregulation of dopamine receptors.

 Low striatal D2 receptor binding as assessed by [123I] IBZM SPECT in patients with writer's cramp   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
Horstink, C.A., Praamstra, P., Horstink, M.W.I.M., Berger, H.J.C., Booij, J., and Van Royen, E.A. Low striatal D2 receptor binding as assessed by [123I] IBZM SPECT in patients with writer's cramp.
In view of the possible involvement of dopaminergic striatal receptors in dystonia, we measured the availability of striatal D2 receptors in patients with writer's cramp using [123I] IBZM SPECT.
Our results suggest that the striatal dopaminergic system is involved in writer's cramp given that patients with writer's cramp have a significantly lower level of striatal [123I IBZM binding than controls.

 Long-term treatment with the tetrahydropyridine analog ( HPTP) of haloperidol influences dopamine ligand binding in ...
The effect of long-term HPTP treatment on the central nervous system of baboons (Papio ursinus) was studied using [123I]iodobenzamide (IBZM) and single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) at 1-14 weeks after termination of HPTP treatment.
Striatal dopamine receptor binding was measured semiquantitatively by calculating the IBZM count rate ratios of the basal ganglia to frontal cortex and basal ganglia to cerebellum.
Time activity curves of IBZM from the brain structures suggest that HPTP treatment results in a marked reduction in central dopamine ligand binding, and in particular D2-like receptor binding.

 Behavioral Changes and [123I]IBZM Equilibrium SPECT Measurement of Amphetamine-Induced Dopamine Release in Rhesus ...
The term sensitization refers to the enhanced behavioral response to psychomotor stimulants, such as d-amphetamine (AMPH) and cocaine, that is shown by subjects who have had prior exposure to these agents (for review see Robinson and Becker 1986; Kalivas and Stewart 1991).
For scans in which plasma samples were taken, fluctuations in plasma concentrations of the parent compound, i.e., altered hepatic metabolism of IBZM, did not account for changes in the binding of IBZM to striatal D2 dopamine receptors.
Finally, as IBZM is not specific to the D2 receptor but also has an affinity for D3 receptors, changes in D2 receptor densities might not be easy to detect.

Within the basal ganglia, the average IBZM binding remained unchanged in the group as a whole.
However, there was a significant correlation between the change of striatal IBZM binding and the improvement in psychopathology (p _ 0.05), i.e., responders demonstrated a 20% increase and nonresponders a 10-20% decrease or no change of striatal and cingulate IBZM binding.

In Parkinson's dissease patients, striatal D2 receptors number was determined in groups of patients separated on the basis of their response to therapy.
Significantly reduced IBZM striatal uptake was found only in the group of patients with a fluctuating response to levodopa.

The aim of this work was to compare the capability of IBZM and ILIS in assessing DR2 in patients with degenerative extra-pyramidal syndromes.
Methods: 69 patients with an extra-pyramidal syndrome were included and evaluated with the Unified Parkinson Disease Rate Scale and Hoehn and Yahr scale: group 1: PD n=37, group 2: PSP n=12, AMS n=16, LBD n=2 and other extra-pyramidal syndromes n=4.
Standardized geometrical regions of interest (ROI) were placed onto the striatum and occipital cortex (2) The ratio between striatal and occipital ROI counting (S/O) was calculated as an index of the binding potential of each ligand to DR2.

 Clinical Trial: Neuroimaging of Dopamine Metabolism in Normal and Psychiatric Patients
[I-123] IBZM is a radioligand that has been widely employed for SPECT imaging of dopamine type 2 and type 3 receptors (D2 and D3, respectively) and fluctuations in levels of endogenous dopamine.
Pharmacological effects of IBZM are unlikely due to the minimal amounts used and have not been observed.
We propose to use [I-123] IBZM SPECT to explore following questions: 1) Can a previously found relationship between N-acetylaspartate (NAA) measures in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and striatal dopamine activity in patients with schizophrenia be replicated and is it also found in normal subjects?

The reduction of IBZM binding is suggestive of an increase in endogenous dopaminergic stimulation.

Instant opiate craving is associated with an increased cue-elicited endogenous dopamine release in the striatum and with increased activity of the nucleus accumbens.
The relation between craving (using self-report) and D2 receptor availability will be studied using ligand [123I]iodobenzamide (IBZM) and single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT).
Genetic influences on D2 receptor availability will be studied by measuring the the presence of the A1 allele (a polymorphism in the noncoding region of the D2 receptor gene).

When the tracers are tested in humans using Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT), they may provide diagnostic information not attainable by other imaging techniques.
In the past ten years, a number of new I-123 labeled CNS receptor imaging agents for SPECT were developed in this laboratory and successfully tested in humans, including TISCH (dopamine D1 receptor), IBZM, IBF and FIDA2 (dopamine D2 and D3 receptors) and IPT (dopamine transporter, DAT).
The dopamine D2 imaging agent- IBZM is currently available commercially in Europe through Cygne (Eindhoven, Netherlands), and the other dopamine D2 receptor imaging agent-IBF is being developed by Nihon Medi-Physics (Tokyo, Japan).
