BACKGROUND: We have previously defined a parkinsonism-related metabolic brain network in rhesus macaques using a high-resolution research positron emission tomography camera. This brief article reports a descriptive pilot study to assess the reproducibility of network activity and regional glucose metabolism in independent parkinsonian macaques using a clinical positron emission tomography/CT camera.
METHODS: [(18)F]fluorodeoxyglucose PET scans were acquired longitudinally over 3 months in three drug-naïve parkinsonian and three healthy control cynomolgus macaques. Group difference and test-retest stability in network activity and regional glucose metabolism were evaluated graphically, using all brain images from these macaques.
RESULTS: Comparing the parkinsonian macaques with the controls, network activity was elevated and remained stable over 3 months. Normalized glucose metabolism increased in putamen/globus pallidus and sensorimotor regions but decreased in posterior parietal cortices.
CONCLUSIONS: Parkinsonism-related network activity can be reliably quantified in different macaques with a clinical positron emission tomography/CT scanner and is reproducible over a period typically employed in preclinical intervention studies. This measure can be a useful biomarker of disease process or drug effects in primate models of Parkinson's disease.
