Evaluation of radiolabeled streptokinase for thrombosis imaging
Introduction: Cardiovascular disease is the major cause of morbidity and mortality in developing and developed countries. Rapid diagnosis of the thrombosis can be an essential step in management of the stroke. Methods: In this work a recently developed radiolabeled streptokinase (STP) tracer was evaluated in an animal thrombotic model using SPECT imaging and biodis...
متن کاملAntimicrobial Peptides as Infection Imaging Agents: Better Than Radiolabeled Antibiotics
Nuclear medicine imaging techniques offer whole body imaging for localization of number and site of infective foci inspite of limitation of spatial resolution. The innate human immune system contains a large member of important elements including antimicrobial peptides to combat any form of infection. However, development of antibiotics against bacteria progressed rapidly and gained popularity ...
متن کاملGene expression imaging with radiolabeled peptides.
An approach to image radiolabeled peptide localization at tumor sites by inducing tumor cells to synthesize membrane expressed human somatostatin receptor subtype 2 (hSSTr2) with a high affinity for radiolabeled somatostatin analogues is described. The use of gene transfer technology to induce expression of high affinity membrane hSSTr2 can enhance the specificity and degree of radiolabeled pep...
متن کاملPreparation and quality control of radiolabeled streptokinase for Thrombosis imaging
Background: In order to diagnose the site of thrombi, radiolabeled streptokinase can be prepared. The radiolabeled compound can be used in imaging of thrombi in many cardiovascular diseases. Materials and Methods: Streptokinase was successively labeled with [67Ga]-gallium chloride using cyclic DTPA-dianhydride. The conjugation with DTPA was optimized for concentration, time and temperature foll...
متن کاملRadiolabeled cyclic RGD peptides as radiotracers for tumor imaging
The integrin family comprises 24 transmembrane receptors, each a heterodimeric combination of one of 18α and one of 8β subunits. Their main function is to integrate the cell adhesion and interaction with the extracellular microenvironment with the intracellular signaling and cytoskeletal rearrangement through transmitting signals across the cell membrane upon ligand binding. Integrin αvβ3 is a ...
