Abstract:

Two 99mTc labeled complexes, 99mTc(HYNIC-penta-lys-Pteroyl)(Tricine/TPPTS) and 99mTc-(HYNIC-Gly-Gly-lys-Pteroyl)(Tricine/TPPTS), were prepared based on the structure of Pteroyl-lys. Both two complexes exhibited high receptor specific binding and extended retention in KB human epidermoid carcinoma cells. The tumor uptake values of 99mTc(HYNIC-penta-lys-Pteroyl)(Tricine/TPPTS) and 99mTc(HYNIC-Gly-Gly-lys-Pteroyl)(Tricine/TPPTS) were (8.55±2.78)%ID/g and (9.77±1.54)%ID/g at 1 h postinjection, respectively. Flank KB tumors were clearly visualized with 99mTc(HYNIC-penta-lys-Pteroyl)(Tricine/TPPTS) and 99mTc(HYNIC-Gly-Gly-lys-Pteroyl)(Tricine/TPPTS) by Micro-SPECT/CT images at 2 h postinjection. High receptor-specific tumor uptakes coupled with fast non-target tissues clearance demonstrated the feasibility of using 99mTc-labeled Pteroyl-lys derivatives as novel imaging probes for FR-positive tumors detection.
