Cancer detection in early stage using a powerful and noninvasive tool is of high global interest. In this experiment, a small-molecular-weight glucose based derivative of Gd3+-1-(4-isothiocyanatobenzyl) diethylene tri amine penta acetic acid (Gd3+-p-SCN-Bn‐DTPA‐DG) as a novel potential MR imaging contrast agents was synthesized. Gd3+-p-SCN-Bn‐DTPA‐DG was synthesized with reacting of Glucosamine...

Abstract The structural and bonding properties of Bi Ac complexes with cyclen-based chelating ligands have been studied using relativistic DFT calculations in conjunction TZ2P all-electron basis sets. Besides the parent cyclen ligand, study has covered its extensions pyridine-type (L py ), carboxylate (DOTA, DOTPA), picolinate (MeDO2PA) phosphonate (DOTMP) pendant arms. effect ring size probed ...

The goal of this study was to synthesize and evaluate a novel bombesin (BN) analogue containing a polyethylene glycol (PEG) linker that can be radiolabeled with 64Cu through the DOTA bifunctional chelate. It is hypothesized that PEG linkers would improve the pharmacokinetics of radiolabeled bombesin analogues to optimize their tumor-to-normal tissue ratios for radiotherapy applications. The for...

BACKGROUND CD37 is an internalizing B-cell antigen expressed on Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) and chronic lymphocytic leukemia cells (CLL). The anti-CD37 monoclonal antibody HH1 was conjugated to the bifunctional chelator p-SCN-Bn-DOTA and labelled with the beta-particle emitting radionuclide 177Lu creating the radio-immunoconjugate (RIC) 177Lu-DOTA-HH1 (177Lu-HH1, trade name Betalutin). The prese...

BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES The prerequisite of radioimmunotherapy is stable binding of a radionuclide to monoclonal antibodies, which are specific to the tumour-associated antigen. Most B-cell lymphomas express CD20 antigen on the surface of the tumour cells, making it a suitable target for therapeutic radioactive monoclonal antibodies. In the present study, the immunoconjugate of biosimilar Ritux...

Purpose. A bimodal nanoprobe for thyroid cancer targeting human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) was synthesized by coupling the magnetic resonance contrast agent Gd3+ with fluorescent dyes Cy5.5 and pertuzumab as a preliminary study of Gd-Cy5.5-pertuzumab in fluorescence imaging. Methods. The bifunctional chelate p-SCN-Bn-1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacetic-acid (DOTA)...

UNLABELLED The 14-amino-acid peptide bombesin (BN) has a high affinity for the gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP) receptor that is expressed by a variety of tumors. Recently, high densities of GRP receptors were identified by in vitro receptor autoradiography in human prostate and breast carcinomas using [(125)I-Tyr(4)]BN as radioligand. Radiometal-labeled diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA)...
