This study compares the efficacy of F-18-FDG and an F-18-labeled PD-L1-binding peptide probe (F-18-PD-L1P) in PET imaging of implant-associated Staphylococcus aureus osteomyelitis (IAOM). The results show that F-18-PD-L1P demonstrates higher %ID/g ratios and provides earlier and more sensitive detection of osteomyelitis caused by S. aureus.
BackgroundEarly and accurate diagnosis of infection-induced osteomyelitis, which often involves increased PD-L1 expression, is crucial for better treatment outcomes. Radiolabeled anti-PD-L1 nuclear imaging allows for sensitive and non-invasive whole-body assessments of PD-L1 expression. This study aimed to compare the efficacy of F-18-FDG and an F-18-labeled PD-L1-binding peptide probe (F-18-PD-L1P) in PET imaging of implant-associated Staphylococcus aureus osteomyelitis (IAOM). MethodsIn this study, we synthesized an anti-PD-L1 probe and compared its efficacy with F-18-FDG and F-18-PD-L1P in PET imaging of implant-associated Staphylococcus aureus osteomyelitis (IAOM). The %ID/g ratios (i.e., radioactivity ratios between the infected and non-infected sides) of both probes were evaluated for sensitivity and accuracy in post-infected 7-day tibias and post-infected 21 days, and the intensity of F-18-PD-L1P uptake was compared with pathological changes measured by PD-L1 immunohistochemistry (IHC). ResultsCompared with F-18-FDG, F-18-PDL1P demonstrated higher %ID/g ratios for both post-infected 7-day tibias (P=0.001) and post-infected 21 days (P=0.028). The intensity of F-18-PD-L1P uptake reflected the pathological changes of osteomyelitic bones. In comparison to F-18-FDG, F-18-PDL1P provides earlier and more sensitive detection of osteomyelitis caused by S. aureus. ConclusionOur findings suggest that the F-18-PDL1P probe is a promising tool for the early and accurate detection of osteomyelitis caused by S. aureus.
