FLUCICLOVINE is a synthetic amino acid which is transported across mammalian cell membranes by amino acid transporters such as LAT-1 and ASCT2. Its 18F radiolabelled form is a positron emission tomography (PET) tracer targeting prostate cancer cells where aforementioned transporters are known to be upregulated, providing a mechanism for the enhanced accumulation of the tracer in these cells.
