## Abstract Formation of islet amyloid deposits contributes to the progressive loss of beta‐cells in Type 2 diabetes. Islet amyloid is composed of islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP). [(N‐Me)G^24^, (N‐Me)I^26^]hIAPP(22–27) peptide was found to bind human IAPP with high‐affinity and inhibit fibrillogen

## Abstract 2‐(4‐Methylaminostyryl)‐6‐(2‐[^18^F]fluoroethoxy)benzoxazole ([^18^F]BF‐168) was prepared and found to be a potential probe for imaging amyloid‐__β__. The precursor, a 6‐(2‐tosyloxyethoxy)benzoxazole derivative, was fluorinated with [^18^F]KF and Kryptofix 222 in acetonitrile, and the c
A potential probe for PET targeting b-amyloid plaques in Alzheimer's disease (AD) brain, FPYBF-1 (5-(5-(2-(2-(2-fluoroethoxy)ethoxy)ethoxy)benzofuran-2-yl)-N,N-dimethylpyridin-2-amine), was synthesized and evaluated. In experiments in vitro, FPYBF-1 displayed high affinity for Ab(1-42) aggregates (K
