Immuno-PET Imaging of Tumor Endothelial Marker 8 (TEM8)
Tumor endothelial marker 8 (TEM8) is a cell surface receptor that is highly expressed in a variety of human tumors and promotes tumor angiogenesis and cell growth. Antibodies targeting TEM8 block tumor angiogenesis in a manner distinct from the VEGF receptor pathway. Development of a TEM8 imaging agent could aid in patient selection for specific antiangiogenic therapies and for response monitor...
متن کاملmicroPET of Tumor Integrin avb3 Expression Using 18F-Labeled PEGylated Tetrameric RGD Peptide (18F-FPRGD4)
In vivo imaging of avb3 expression has important diagnostic and therapeutic applications. Multimeric cyclic RGD peptides are capable of improving the integrin avb3–binding affinity due to the polyvalency effect. Here we report an example of 18F-labeled tetrameric RGD peptide for PET of avb3 expression in both xenograft and spontaneous tumor models. Methods: The tetrameric RGD peptide EfE[c(RGDy...
متن کاملImaging of ischemic but viable myocardium using a new 18F-labeled 2-nitroimidazole analog, 18F-FRP170.
UNLABELLED RP170, 1-(2-hydroxy-1-[hydroxymethyl]ethoxy)methyl-2-nitroimidazole, is a new hypoxic radiosensitizer. We recently succeeded in labeling this compound with 18F to make 18F-FRP170, 1-(2-fluoro-1-[hydroxymethyl]ethoxy)methyl-2-nitroimidazole. In this study, we attempted to visualize the ischemic but viable myocardium of rats as hot-spot images using 18F-FRP170. We also compared the dis...
متن کاملConvenient Preparation of 18F-Labeled Peptide Probes for Potential Claudin-4 PET Imaging
Since pancreatic cancer is often diagnosed in a late state of cancer development, diagnostic opportunities allowing early disease detection are highly sought after. As such, cancer expression of claudin proteins is markedly dysregulated, making it an attractive target for molecular imaging like positron emission tomography (PET). Claudins are a family of transmembrane proteins that have a pivot...
متن کاملAntitumor activities of TEM8-Fc: an engineered antibody-like molecule targeting tumor endothelial marker 8.
Tumor endothelial marker 8 (TEM8) was discovered as a cell membrane protein that is predominantly expressed in tumor endothelium and identified as a receptor for anthrax toxin. We developed an antibody-like molecule that consists of the protective antigen (PA)-binding domain of human TEM8 linked to the Fc portion of human immunoglobulin G1 (TEM8-Fc). This engineered protein bound to PA in a div...
