Multidrug resistance (MDR) mediated by over-expression of P-glycoprotein (Pgp) is one of the major causes of failure of chemotherapy in cancer treatment. Colchicine, a naturally occurring alkaloid, is a Pgp substrate and acts as an antimitotic agent by binding to microtubules. Hence, Colchicine and its analogues radiolabeled with 99mTc may have potential for visualization of MDR in tumors. Here we report 99mTc-labeling of colchicine derivatives using [99mTc(CO)3(H2O)3]+ and [99mTc triple bond N]2+ cores. Trimethylcolchicinic acid synthesized from colchicine was used as the precursor to prepare iminodiacetic acid and dithiocarbamate derivatives which were then radiolabeled with [99mTc(CO)3(H2O)3]+ and [99mTc triple bond N]2+ cores, respectively. Radiolabeling yield for both the complexes was > 98% as observed by HPLC and TLC patterns. In vitro studies in tumor cell lines showed significant uptake for 99mTc-carbonyl as well as for 99mTc-nitrido colchicine complexes. Biodistribution studies in Swiss mice bearing fibrosarcoma tumor showed 4.1 +/- 1.2% ID/g of uptake at 30 min pi for 99mTc(CO)3-complex as against 0.42 +/- 0.24% ID/g for the 99mTcN-complex. 99mTc(CO)3-colchicine complex exhibited better pharmacokinetics with lower liver accumulation as compared to the 99mTcN-complex. Thus, colchicine radiolabeled with [99mTc(CO)3(H2O)3]+ core is more promising with respect to in vivo distribution characteristics in tumor model. 相似文献

Linker effects on biological properties of 111In-labeled DTPA conjugates of a cyclic RGDfK dimer 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
In this report, we present in vitro and in vivo evaluation of three 111 In-labeled DTPA conjugates of a cyclic RGDfK dimer: DTPA-Bn-SU016 (SU016 = E[c(RGDfK)] 2; DTPA-Bn = 2-( p-isothioureidobenzyl)diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid), DTPA-Bn-E-SU016 ( E = glutamic acid) and DTPA-Bn-Cys-SU016 (Cys = cysteic acid). The integrin alpha vbeta 3 binding affinities of SU016, DTPA-Bn-SU016, DTPA-Bn-E-SU016, and DTPA-Bn-Cys-SU016 were determined to be 5.0 +/- 0.7 nM, 7.9 +/- 0.6 nM, 5.8 +/- 0.6 nM, and 6.9 +/- 0.9 nM, respectively, against 125 I-c(RGDyK) in binding to integrin alpha vbeta3, suggesting that E or Cys residue has little effect on the integrin alpha vbeta3 affinity of E[c(RGDfK)] 2. It was also found that the 111 In-labeling efficiency of DTPA-Bn-SU016 and DTPA-Bn-E-SU016 is 3-5 times better than that of DOTA analogues due to fast chelation kinetics and high-yield 111 In-labeling under mild conditions (e.g., room temperature). Biodistribution studies were performed using BALB/c nude mice bearing U87MG human glioma xenografts. 111 In-DTPA-Bn-SU016, 111 In-DTPA-Bn-E-SU016, and 111 In-DTPA-Bn-Cys-SU016 all displayed rapid blood clearance. Their tumor uptake was comparable between 0.5 and 4 h postinjection (p.i.) within experimental error. 111 In-DTPA-Bn-E-SU016 had a significantly lower ( p < 0.01) kidney uptake than 111 In-DTPA-Bn-SU016 and 111 In-DTPA-Bn-Cys-SU016. The liver uptake of 111 In-DTPA-Bn-SU016 was 1.69 +/- 0.18% ID/g at 24 h p.i., while the liver uptake values of 111 In-DTPA-Bn-E-SU016 and 111 In-DTPA-Bn-Cys-SU016 were 0.55 +/- 0.11% ID/g and 0.79 +/- 0.15% ID/g at 24 h p.i., respectively. Among the three 111 In radiotracers evaluated in this study, 111 In-DTPA-Bn-E-SU016 has the lowest liver and kidney uptake and the best tumor/liver and tumor/kidney ratios. Results from metabolism studies indicated that there is little metabolism (<10%) for three 111 In radiotracers at 1 h p.i. Imaging data showed that tumors can be clearly visualized at 4 h p.i. with good contrast in the tumor-bearing mice administered with 111 In-DTPA-Bn-E-SU016. It is concluded that using a glutamic acid linker can significantly improve excretion kinetics of the 111 In-labeled E[c(RGDfK)] 2 from liver and kidneys. 相似文献

Technetium-labeled fatty acids intended for myocardial metabolism imaging and the respective rhenium model complexes were synthesized according to the "4 + 1" mixed-ligand approach and investigated in vitro and in vivo. The non-radioactive rhenium model complexes were characterized by NMR, IR, and EA, and the geometrical impact of the chelate unit on the integrity of the fatty acid head structure was determined by single-crystal X-ray analyses. To estimate the diagnostic value of the 99mTc-labeled fatty acids, the compounds were investigated in experiments in vitro and in biodistribution studies using male Wistar rats. The new fatty acid tracers contain the metal core in the oxidation states +3, well-wrapped in a trigonal-bipyramidal coordination moiety, which is attached at the omega-position of a fatty acid chain. This structural feature is considered to be a good imitation of the well-established iodinated phenyl fatty acids. High heart extraction in perfused heart studies (up to 26% injected dose (ID)) and noticeable heart uptake of the 99mTc tracers in vivo being in the order of 2% ID/g at 5 min (postinjection, pi.), accompanied by a good heart to blood ratio of 8, confirms that the new Tc compounds are suitable as fatty acid tracers. 相似文献

The folate receptor (FR) is upregulated in various cancer types (FR-α isoform) and in activated macrophages (FR-β isoform) which are involved in inflammatory and autoimmune diseases, but its expression in healthy tissues and organs is highly restricted to only a few sites (e.g kidneys). Therefore, the FR is a promising target for imaging and therapy of cancer and inflammation using folate-based radiopharmaceuticals. Herein, we report the synthesis and evaluation of a novel folic acid conjugate with improved properties suitable for positron emission tomography (PET). [(18)F]-fluoro-deoxy-glucose folate ([(18)F]3) was synthesized based on the click chemistry approach using 2-deoxy-2-[(18)F]fluoroglucopyranosyl azide and a folate alkyne derivative. The novel radiotracer [(18)F]3 was produced in good radiochemical yields (25% d.c.) and high specific radioactivity (90 GBq/μmol). Compared to previously published (18)F-folic acid derivatives, an increase in hydrophilicity was achieved by using a glucose entity as a prosthetic group. Biodistribution and PET imaging studies in KB tumor-bearing mice showed a high and specific uptake of the radiotracer in FR-positive tumors (10.03 ± 1.12%ID/g, 60 min p.i.) and kidneys (42.94 ± 2.04%ID/g, 60 min p.i.). FR-unspecific accumulation of radioactivity was only found in the liver (9.49 ± 1.13%ID/g, 60 min p.i.) and gallbladder (17.59 ± 7.22%ID/g, 60 min p.i.). No radiometabolites were detected in blood, urine, and liver tissue up to 30 min after injection of [(18)F]3. [(18)F]-fluoro-deoxy-glucose-folate ([(18)F]3) is thus a promising PET radioligand for imaging FR-positive tumors. 相似文献

The present study describes modification of asparagine–glycine–arginine (NGR) peptide at N‐terminally and C‐terminally by introduction of a tridentate chelating scaffold via click chemistry reaction. The N‐terminal and C‐terminal modified peptides were radiometalated with [99mTc(CO)3]+ precursor. The influence of these moieties at the two termini on the targeting properties of NGR peptide was determined by in vitro cell uptake studies and in vivo biodistribution studies. The two radiolabeled constructs did not exhibit any significant variation in uptake in murine melanoma B16F10 cells during in vitro studies. In vivo studies revealed nearly similar tumor uptake of N‐terminally modified peptide construct 5 and C‐terminally construct 6 at 2 h p.i. (1.9 ± 0.1 vs 2.4 ± 0.2% ID/g, respectively). The tumor‐to‐blood (T/B) and tumor‐to‐liver (T/L) ratios of the two radiometalated peptides were also quite similar. The two constructs cleared from all the major organs (heart, lungs, spleen, stomach, and blood) at 4 h p.i. (<1% ID/g). Blocking studies carried out by coinjection of cCNGRC peptide led to approximately 50% reduction in the tumor uptake at 2 h p.i. This work thus illustrates the possibility of convenient modification/radiometalation of NGR peptide at either N‐ or C‐terminus without hampering tumor targeting and pharmacokinetics. 相似文献

Radiolabeled peptides containing the Arg-Gly-Asp amino acid sequence (single letter code = RGD) have been studied extensively to target integrin receptors upregulated on tumor cells and neovasculature. Integrins are cell surface transmembrane glycoproteins that exist as alphabeta heterodimers. The alphavbeta3 integrin is known to be overexpressed in many tumor types and is expressed at lower levels in normal tissues. Furthermore, alphavbeta3 and alphavbeta5 subtypes are expressed in neovasculature during angiogenesis. Thus, there is some impetus to image angiogenesis and tumor formation in vivo using RGD-based peptide targeting vectors. In this study, we report the design and development of a new cyclic RGD analogue cyclo-[Arg-Gly-Asp-d-Tyr-Lys(PZ)] (PZ = 3,5-Me2-pz(CH2)2N((CH2)3COOH)(CH2)2NH2) that can be radiolabeled with the [99mTc(CO)3(H2O)3]+ metal aquaion. Radiochemical evaluation of this new conjugate in vitro indicated a facile radiosynthesis of the new 99mTc-RGD conjugate with high radiolabeling yields (>or=95%) and high specific activities. In vitro internalization and blocking assays in alphavbeta3 receptor-positive, human M21 melanoma cancer cells showed the ability of this conjugate to target the integrin receptor with high specificity and selectivity. In vivo pharmacokinetic studies in normal CF-1 mice showed rapid clearance from blood with excretion primarily via/through the renal-urinary system. In vivo accumulation of radioactivity in mice bearing either alphavbeta3 receptor-positive or negative human melanoma tumors showed receptor specific uptake of tracer with accumulations of 2.50 +/- 0.29 and 0.71 +/- 0.08% ID/g in alphavbeta3 integrin positive (M21) and negative (M21L) tumors at 1 h postinjection (p.i.), respectively. 相似文献

Recent progress in the synthesis of water-soluble phosphine ligand systems and their corresponding 99mTc complexes prompted the development of a new bifunctional chelating agent (BFCA) based on a tetradentate dithiadiphosphine framework (P2S2-COOH). The detailed synthesis of this new BFCA is described here. The corresponding 99mTc complex, 99mTc-P2S2-COOH, can be formed in >95% yield. To demonstrate the potential of this chelate to efficiently label peptides, 99mTc-P2S2-COOH was coupled to the N-terminal region of the truncated nine-amino acid bombesin analogue, 5-Ava-Gln-Trp-Ala-Val-Gly-His-Leu-Met-NH2 [BBN(7-14)], to form 99mTc-P2S2-BBN(7-14). Conjugation to the peptide was performed in borate buffer (pH 8.5) by applying the prelabeling approach in yields of >60%. In competitive binding assays, using Swiss 3T3 mouse fibroblast cells against [125I-Tyr4]bombesin, Re-P2S2-BBN(7-14) exhibited an IC50 value of 0.8 +/- 0.4 nM. The pharmacokinetic studies of 99mTc-P2S2-BBN(7-14) and its ability to target tissue expressing gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP) receptors were performed in normal mice. The 99mTc-P2S2-BBN(7-14) exhibited fast and efficient clearance from the blood pool (0.6 +/- 0.1% ID, 4 h postinjection) and excretion through the renal and hepatobiliary pathways (56.4 +/- 8.2 and 28.1 +/- 7.9% ID, 4 h postinjection, respectively). Significant uptake in the pancreas was observed (pancreatic acini cells express bombesin/GRP receptors), producing pancreas:blood and pancreas:muscle ratios of ca. 22 and 80, respectively, at 4 h postinjection. 相似文献

Integrin alphavbeta3 plays a critical role in tumor angiogenesis and metastasis. Radiolabeled RGD peptides that are integrin alphavbeta3-specific are very useful for noninvasive imaging of integrin expression in rapidly growing and metastatic tumors. In this study, we determined the binding affinity of E{E[c(RGDfK)]2}2 (tetramer) and its 6-hydrazinonicotinamide conjugate (HYNIC-tetramer) against the binding of 125I-echistatin to the integrin alphavbeta3-positive MDA-MB-435 breast cancer cells. The athymic nude mice bearing MDA-MB-435 xenografts were used to evaluate the potential of ternary ligand complex [99mTc(HYNIC-tetramer)(tricine)(TPPTS)] (TPPTS = trisodium triphenylphosphine-3,3',3' '-trisulfonate) as a new radiotracer for imaging breast cancer integrin alphavbeta3 expression by single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT). It was found that the binding affinity of tetramer (IC50 = 51 +/- 11 nM) was slightly higher than that of its dimeric analogue (IC50 = 78 +/- 27 nM) and is comparable to that of the HYNIC-tetramer conjugate (IC50 = 55 +/- 11 nM) within the experimental error. Biodistribution data showed that [99mTc(HYNIC-tetramer)(tricine)(TPPTS)] had a rapid blood clearance (4.61 +/- 0.81 %ID/g at 5 min postinjection (p.i.) and 0.56 +/- 0.12 %ID/g at 120 min p.i.) and was excreted mainly via the renal route. [99mTc(HYNIC-tetramer)(tricine)(TPPTS)] had high tumor uptake with a long tumor retention (5.60 +/- 0.87 %ID/g and 7.30 +/- 1.32 %ID/g at 5 and 120 min p.i., respectively). The integrin alphavbeta3-specificity was demonstrated by co-injection of excess E[c(RGDfK)]2, which resulted in a significant reduction in tumor uptake of the radiotracer. The metabolic stability of [99mTc(HYNIC-tetramer)(tricine)(TPPTS)] was determined by analyzing urine and feces samples from the tumor-bearing mice at 120 min p.i. In the urine, about 20% of [99mTc(HYNIC-tetramer)(tricine)(TPPTS)] remained intact while only approximately 15% metabolized species was detected in feces. SPECT images displayed significant radiotracer localization in tumor with good contrast as early as 1 h p.i. The high tumor uptake and fast renal excretion make [99mTc(HYNIC-tetramer)(tricine)(TPPTS)] a promising radiotracer for noninvasive imaging of the integrin alphavbeta3-positive tumors by SPECT. 相似文献

(E)-N-(3-bromoprop-2-enyl)-2beta-carbomethoxy-3beta-4'-tolyl -nortropane or PE2Br, an analogue of cocaine was labelled with the positron emitter 76Br (T1/2=16 h) for pharmacological evaluation in the rat and PET investigation in the monkey. [76Br]PE2Br was obtained by electrophilic substitution from the tributylstannyl precursor with radiochemical yield of 80%. In vivo biodistribution studies of [76Br]PE2Br (20 MBq/nmol) in rats showed a high uptake in the striatum (2.2% ID/g tissue at 15 min p.i.). The striatum to cerebellum radioactivity ratio was 6 at 1 hour p.i. Striatal uptake of [76Br]PE2Br was almost completely prevented by pretreatment with GBR 12909, but citalopram and maprotiline had no effect, confirming the selectivity of the radioligand for the dopamine transporter. PET imaging of the biodistribution of [76Br]PE2Br in the baboon demonstrated rapid and high uptake in the brain (5% ID at 3 min p.i.). The striatal radioactivity concentration reached a plateau at 20 min p.i. (7% ID/100 mL). The uptake in the cortex and cerebellum was very low. A significantly higher uptake in the thalamus was observed. At 1h p.i., the striatum to cerebellum ratio and thalamus to cerebellum ratio were 8 and 1.9 respectively. In competition experiments the radioactivity in the striatum and the thalamus was displaced by 5 mg/kgof cocaine and 5 mg/kg of GBR 12909, but citalopram and maprotiline had no effect. These results showed that [76Br]PE2Br is in vivo a potent and selective radioligand suitable for PET imagingof the dopamine transporter. 相似文献

The potential of the HER2-targeting antibody trastuzumab as a radioimmunoconjugate useful for both imaging and therapy was investigated. Conjugation of trastuzumab with the acyclic bifunctional chelator CHX-A”-DTPA yielded a chelate:protein ratio of 3.4±0.3; the immunoreactivity of the antibody unaffected. Radiolabeling was efficient, routinely yielding a product with high specific activity. Tumor targeting was evaluated in mice bearing subcutaneous (s.c.) xenografts of colorectal, pancreatic, ovarian, and prostate carcinomas. High uptake of the radioimmunoconjugate, injected intravenously (i.v.), was observed in each of the models, and the highest tumor %ID/g (51.18±13.58) was obtained with the ovarian (SKOV-3) tumor xenograft. Specificity was demonstrated by the absence of uptake of 111In-trastuzumab by melanoma (A375) s.c. xenografts and 111In-HuIgG by s.c. LS-174T xenografts. Minimal uptake of i.v. injected 111In-trastuzumab in normal organs was confirmed in non-tumor-bearing mice. The in vivo behavior of 111In-trastuzumab in mice bearing intraperitoneal (i.p.) LS-174T tumors resulted in a tumor %ID/g of 130.85±273.34 at 24 h. Visualization of tumor, s.c. and i.p. xenografts, was achieved by γ-scintigraphy and PET imaging. Blood pool was evident as expected, but cleared over time. The blood pharmacokinetics of i.v. and i.p. injected 111In-trastuzumab was determined in mice with and without tumors. The data from these in vitro and in vivo studies supported advancement of radiolabeled trastuzumab into two clinical studies, a Phase 0 imaging study in the Molecular Imaging Program of the National Cancer Institute and a Phase 1 radioimmunotherapy study at the University of Alabama. 相似文献

A 99mTc(I)-postlabeled high affinity bombesin analogue as a potential tumor imaging agent 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

The overexpression of neuropeptide receptors observed in many cancers provides an attractive target for tumor imaging and therapy. Bombesin is a peptide exhibiting a high affinity for the gastrin releasing peptide (GRP) receptor, which is overexpressed by a variety of tumors such as breast or prostate cancer. In the present study, we have evaluated if the bombesin analogue [N(alpha)-histidinyl acetate]bombesin(7-14), radiolabeled with the novel [99mTc(OH(2))(3)(CO)(3)]+, has the potential to be used as a diagnostic radiopharmaceutical. Receptor saturation studies, carried out on the GRP receptor-expressing PC-3 human prostate cancer cell line, revealed for [99mTc(CO)(3)-N(alpha)-histidinyl acetate]bombesin(7-14) K(d) values in the subnanomolar range. Competitive binding assays, using the cold rhenium(I)-labeled analogue as a surrogate for the 99mTc-conjugate, also showed high affinity binding. Incubation of the radioconjugate with PC-3 cells resulted in a rapid temperature- and time-dependent specific internalization. At 37 degrees C more than 70% was internalized within the first 15 min and remained constant up to 2 h. Despite the weak proteolytic stability of [99mTc(CO)(3)-N(alpha)-histidinyl acetate]bombesin(7-14) in vitro, biodistribution studies, performed in PC-3 tumor-bearing mice, showed low uptake in the tumor (0.89 +/- 0.27% ID/g 30 min pi) but high uptake into the pancreas (7.11 +/- 3.93% ID/g 30 min pi), a GRP receptor-positive organ. Blockade experiment (coinjection of 300 microg bombesin/mouse with the radioligand) showed specificity of the uptake. Despite the low tumor uptake, tumor-to-blood ratios of 2.0 and 2.7 and tumor-to-muscle ratios of 8.9 and 8.0 were obtained at 30 min and 1.5 h postinjection, respectively. The promising results merit the future in vivo investigation of 99mTc/188Re-tricarbonyl-labeled bombesin analogues. 相似文献

Bombesin (BBN) peptide exhibits high selectivity and affinity for the gastrin-releasing peptide receptor (GRPr). The GRPr is overexpressed on many human cancer cell types, thus making BBN a potent delivery vehicle for radionuclide targeting. In this study, the biologically active minimal sequence BBN(7-14) was labeled using the novel Tc '4 + 1' mixed-ligand system, [Tc(NS3)(CN-R)], in which Tc(III) is coordinated by a monodentate isocyanide linker bearing the peptide and the tetradentate, tripodal chelator, 2,2',2'-nitrilotriethanethiol (NS3). BBN(7-14) was N-terminally modified with Gly-Gly-Gly, betaAla, and Ser-Ser-Ser spacer groups (X) and functionalized with 4-(isocyanomethyl)benzoic acid (L1) or 4-isocyanobutanoic acid (L2), resulting in a series of [M(NS3)(L-X-BBN(7-14))] conjugates (M = 99mTc, Re). The isocyanide ligand frameworks were introduced using novel bifunctional coupling agents. The spacer groups (X), the monodentate isocyanide units, and a tetradentate NS3 chelator bearing a pendant carboxylic acid (NS3COOH) were proposed as pharmacological modifiers. 99mTc-labeling was performed in a two-step procedure by first preparing 99mTc-EDTA/mannitol followed by reactions with the isocyanides and NS3 or NS3COOH ligand frameworks. The 99mTc complexes were obtained with a radiochemical yield of 30-80% depending on the amount of the isocyanide (20-100 nmol) used. These new conjugates were purified by reversed-phased high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) to give a radiochemical purity of >or=95%. The 99mTc conjugates exhibited high in vitro stability (>90%, 24 h). Analogous nonradioactive Re conjugates were synthesized and characterized by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS). RP-HPLC analyses of the Re conjugates indicated that they exhibited identical retention times to the corresponding 99mTc conjugates under identical HPLC conditions, demonstrating structural similarity between the two metalated species. The [Re(NS3)(L-X-BBN(7-14))] conjugates exhibited GRPr affinity in the nanomolar range as demonstrated by in vitro competitive binding assays using PC-3 human prostate cancer cells. In vitro internalization/externalization assays indicated that approximately 65% of [99mTc(NS3)(L2-betaAla-BBN(7-14))] conjugate was either surface-bound or internalized in PC-3 cells. Cell-associated activity for all other 99mTc conjugates was below 20%. Biodistribution studies of [99mTc(NS3)(L-betaAla-BBN(7-14))], L = L1 or L2, in normal, CF-1 mice showed minimal accumulation in normal pancreas (a tissue expressing the GRPr in high density in rodent models) and rapid hepatobiliary elimination. Introduction of a carboxyl group onto the NS3 ligand framework had only minimal effects to increase renal excretion. Activity distribution and accumulation was highly dominated by the relatively lipophilic '4 + 1' complex unit. 相似文献

An iminodiacetic acid (IDA) derivative of 2-methyl-5-nitroimidazole was synthesized as a carrier molecule for radiolabeling with the gamma emitting radioisotope, 99mTc, for imaging hypoxic regions of tumors. The ligand was synthesized in excellent yield and labeled using freshly prepared [99mTc(CO)3(H2O)3]+ intermediate. A complexation yield of over 95% could be achieved under mild conditions using a ligand concentration of 1 mg/mL [ approximately 3 x 10(-3)M]. The complex was characterized by HPLC and its stability in human serum was studied. Biodistribution studies performed in Swiss mice bearing fibrosarcoma tumor showed maximum accumulation in the tumor to the extent of approximately 0.52 % ID/g at 30 min post-injection (pi). The major clearance of the complex was through the hepatobiliary route. The complex showed tumor/muscle ratio of 1.75 at 30 min pi, which significantly increased to 17 at 180 min pi. However, the tumor/blood ratio was below one throughout the period of study, which could be due to slow clearance of the complex from blood. 相似文献

Although antigen-binding fragments (Fabs) of antibodies constitute established tracers for in vivo radiodiagnostics, their functionality is hampered by a very short circulation half-life. PASylation, the genetic fusion with a long, conformationally disordered amino acid chain comprising Pro, Ala and Ser, provides a convenient way to expand protein size and, consequently, retard renal filtration. Humanized αHER2 and αCD20 Fabs were systematically fused with 100 to 600 PAS residues and produced in E. coli. Cytofluorimetric titration analysis on tumor cell lines confirmed that antigen-binding activities of the parental antibodies were retained. The radio-iodinated PASylated Fabs were studied by positron emission tomography (PET) imaging and biodistribution analysis in mouse tumor xenograft models. While the unmodified αHER2 and αCD20 Fabs showed weak tumor uptake (0.8% and 0.2% ID/g, respectively; 24 h p.i.) tumor-associated radioactivity was boosted with increasing PAS length (up to 9 and 26-fold, respectively), approaching an optimum for Fab-PAS400. Remarkably, 6- and 5-fold higher tumor-to-blood ratios compared with the unmodified Fabs were measured in the biodistribution analysis (48 h p.i.) for αHER2 Fab-PAS100 and Fab-PAS200, respectively. These findings were confirmed by PET studies, showing high imaging contrast in line with tumor-to-blood ratios of 12.2 and 5.7 (24 h p.i.) for αHER2 Fab-PAS100 and Fab-PAS200. Even stronger tumor signals were obtained with the corresponding αCD20 Fabs, both in PET imaging and biodistribution analysis, with an uptake of 2.8% ID/g for Fab-PAS100 vs. 0.24% ID/g for the unmodified Fab. Hence, by engineering Fabs via PASylation, plasma half-life can be tailored to significantly improve tracer uptake and tumor contrast, thus optimally matching reagent/target interactions. 相似文献

Vascular immunotargeting is a mean for a site-selective delivery of drugs and genes to endothelium. In this study, we compared recognition of pulmonary and systemic vessels in rats by candidate carrier monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) to endothelial antigens platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule (PECAM)-1 (CD31), intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM)-1 (CD54), Thy-1.1 (CD90.1), angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE; CD143), and OX-43. Tissue immunostaining showed that endothelial cells were Thy-1.1 positive in capillaries but negative in large vessels. In the lung, anti-ACE MAb provided a positive staining in 100% capillaries vs. 5-20% capillaries in other organs. Other MAbs did not discriminate between pulmonary and systemic vessels. We determined tissue uptake after infusion of 1 microg of (125)I-labeled MAbs in isolated perfused lungs (IPL) or intravenously in intact rats. Uptake in IPL attained 46% of the injected dose (ID) of anti-Thy-1.1 and 20-25% ID of anti-ACE, anti-ICAM-1, and anti-OX-43 (vs. 0.5% ID of control IgG). However, after systemic injection at this dose, only anti-ACE MAb 9B9 displayed selective pulmonary uptake (16 vs. 1% ID/g in other organs). Anti-OX-43 displayed low pulmonary (0.5% ID/g) but significant splenic and cardiac uptake (7 and 2% ID/g). Anti-Thy-1.1 and anti-ICAM-1 displayed moderate pulmonary (4 and 6% ID/g, respectively) and high splenic and hepatic uptake (e.g., 18% ID/g of anti-Thy-1.1 in spleen). The lung-to-blood ratio was 5, 10, and 15 for anti-Thy-1.1, anti-ACE, and anti-ICAM-1, respectively. PECAM antibodies displayed low pulmonary uptake in perfusion (2% ID) and in vivo (3-4% ID/g). However, conjugation with streptavidin (SA) markedly augmented pulmonary uptake of anti-PECAM in perfusion (10-54% ID, depending on an antibody clone) and in vivo (up to 15% ID/g). Therefore, ACE-, Thy-1.1-, ICAM-1-, and SA-conjugated PECAM MAbs are candidate carriers for pulmonary targeting. ACE MAb offers a high selectivity of pulmonary targeting in vivo, likely because of a high content of ACE-positive capillaries in the lungs. 相似文献

A novel folate conjugate of mitomycin C, herein referred to as EC72, was designed and evaluated for biological activity against FR-positive cells and tumors. EC72 was produced by coupling folic acid-gamma-cysteine to 7-N-modified MMC via a disulfide bond. This water soluble conjugate was found to retain high affinity for FR-positive cells, and it produced dose responsive activity in vitro against a panel of folate receptor (FR)-positive cell lines. EC72's activity was considered to be targeted and specific for the FR since (i) excess folic acid blocked biological activity, and (ii) FR-negative cell lines were unresponsive to this drug. Initial in vivo tests confirmed EC72's activity in both syngeneic and xenograft models, and this activity occurred in the apparent absence of gross or pathological toxicity. These results are significant, since daily dosing of EC72 for more than 30 consecutive days yielded no evidence of myelosuppression or toxicity to major organs, including the FR-positive kidneys. The latter observation supports published data, indicating that the apically oriented kidney proximal tubule FRs function to salvage folates prior to their excretion and to return these molecules back into systemic circulation. Overall, EC72's performance in vitro and in vivo warrants further preclinical study before this novel targeted chemotherapeutic is considered for clinical investigation. 相似文献

The high kinetic stability of the Cu2+ complex of the chelator 4-[(1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradec-1-yl)-methyl]benzoic acid was demonstrated at physiological pH as well as under acidic conditions. The chelating agent was conjugated to AB35, a monoclonal antibody directed against CEA, without a significant loss of immunoreactivity. The conjugate could, under optimal labeling conditions, be labeled with 67Cu in acetate buffer with a full occupancy of ligands within 20 min. This radiolabeled conjugate showed no transfer of radiocopper to serum proteins in human serum over 7 days. The biodistribution in tumor-bearing mice was measured and compared to that of iodinated AB35. Tumor uptake was high with 15 +/- 3% ID (injected dose)/g after 24 h and 32 +/- 7% ID/g after 96 h for the 67Cu-labeled antibody and 13 +/- 4% ID/g after 24 h and 14 +/- 2% ID/g after 96 h for the 125I-labeled antibody. Whereas radioactivity in normal organs decreased with time after 24 h, increased residence time was shown up to 4 days with the 67Cu-labeled AB35. 相似文献

O(6)-Benzylguanine derivatives with suitable radionuclides attached to the benzyl ring are potentially useful in the noninvasive imaging of the DNA repair protein, alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferase (AGT). Previously, O(6)-3-[(131)I]iodobenzylguanine ([(131)I]IBG) was prepared using a two-step approach; we now report its synthesis in a single step by the radioiododestannylation of O(6)-3-(trimethylstannyl)benzylguanine in 85-95% radiochemical yield. The in vitro specific uptake of [(131)I]IBG in DAOY human medulloblastoma cells, in TE-671 human rhabdomyosarcoma cells and a CHO cell line transfected to express AGT was linear (r(2) = 0.9-1.0) as a function of cell density. After intravenous injection of [(131)I]IBG in athymic mice bearing TE-671 xenografts, tumor uptake was 1.38 +/- 0.34% ID/g at 0.5 h and declined at 2 and 4 h. Preadministration of O(6)-(3-iodobenzyl)guanine (IBG) at 0.5 h increased uptake not only in tumor but also in several normal tissues. Notable exceptions were thyroid (p < 0.05), lung (p <0.05) and stomach. After intratumoral injection of [(131)I]IBG in the same xenograft model, the uptake in tumors that were depleted of AGT by BG treatment (165.8 +/- 27.5% ID/g) was about 60% of that in control mice (272.4 +/- 48.2% ID/g; p < 0.05). 相似文献

Although antigen-binding fragments (Fabs) of antibodies constitute established tracers for in vivo radiodiagnostics, their functionality is hampered by a very short circulation half-life. PASylation, the genetic fusion with a long, conformationally disordered amino acid chain comprising Pro, Ala and Ser, provides a convenient way to expand protein size and, consequently, retard renal filtration. Humanized αHER2 and αCD20 Fabs were systematically fused with 100 to 600 PAS residues and produced in E. coli. Cytofluorimetric titration analysis on tumor cell lines confirmed that antigen-binding activities of the parental antibodies were retained. The radio-iodinated PASylated Fabs were studied by positron emission tomography (PET) imaging and biodistribution analysis in mouse tumor xenograft models. While the unmodified αHER2 and αCD20 Fabs showed weak tumor uptake (0.8% and 0.2% ID/g, respectively; 24 h p.i.) tumor-associated radioactivity was boosted with increasing PAS length (up to 9 and 26-fold, respectively), approaching an optimum for Fab-PAS400. Remarkably, 6- and 5-fold higher tumor-to-blood ratios compared with the unmodified Fabs were measured in the biodistribution analysis (48 h p.i.) for αHER2 Fab-PAS100 and Fab-PAS200, respectively. These findings were confirmed by PET studies, showing high imaging contrast in line with tumor-to-blood ratios of 12.2 and 5.7 (24 h p.i.) for αHER2 Fab-PAS100 and Fab-PAS200. Even stronger tumor signals were obtained with the corresponding αCD20 Fabs, both in PET imaging and biodistribution analysis, with an uptake of 2.8% ID/g for Fab-PAS100
vs. 0.24% ID/g for the unmodified Fab. Hence, by engineering Fabs via PASylation, plasma half-life can be tailored to significantly improve tracer uptake and tumor contrast, thus optimally matching reagent/target interactions. 相似文献
