Designing the magic bullet? The advancement of immuno-PET into clinical use.

چکیده
The development of noninvasive imaging techniques using monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) is a quickly evolving field. Immuno-PET uses positron-emitting isotopes to track the localization of mAbs with excellent image quality. Procedures for labeling mAbs with (89)Zr or (124)I using good manufacturing procedures have been established, and therefore these radiopharmaceuticals are being investigated for clinical use. This short review will focus on immuno-PET with full mAbs using long-lived positron-emitting isotopes ((89)Zr and (124)I) over the past 5 y and discuss their progress into clinical use.

متن کاملEhrlich's Magic Bullet - and the Curse of Injections
Paul Ehrlich, the inventor of the Magic Bullet died, regretting the slaughter of the First World War. As biology students in the early 1940’s we all knew one important number, 606, the name of the first man-made drug, Salvarsan or the Magic Bullet. A German doctor, Paul Ehrlich, had noticed that different dyes would stain tissues and even bacteria and parasites. He noticed that methylene blue s...
متن کاملUse of gold nanoparticles in MAGIC-f gels to 18 MeV photon enhancement
Objective(s): Normoxic MAGIC-f polymer gels are established dosimeters used for three dimensional dose quantifications in radiotherapy. Nanoparticles with high atomic number such as gold are novel radiosensitizers used to enhance doses delivered to tumors. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of gold nanoparticles (GNPs) in enhancing percentage depth doses (PDDs) within the MAGIC...
