The Effect of A Hexanoic Acid Linker Insertion on the Pharmacokinetics and Tumor Targeting Properties of the Melanoma Imaging Agent 99mTc-HYNIC-cycMSH.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Lactam cyclized alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH) analogues exhibit high stability and affinity for the MC1-R receptors over expressed in melanoma cells. Recently, we reported a novel 99mTc-HYNIC-cycMSH4-13 analogue with the HYNIC chelator directly attached to the lactam

A heterodimeric [RGD-Glu-[(64)Cu-NO2A]-6-Ahx-RM2] αvβ3/GRPr-targeting antagonist radiotracer for PET imaging of prostate tumors.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND In the present study, we describe a (64)Cu-radiolabeled heterodimeric peptide conjugate for dual αvβ3/GRPr (αvβ3 integrin/gastrin releasing peptide receptor) targeting of the form [RGD-Glu-[(64)Cu-NO2A]-6-Ahx-RM2] (RGD: the amino acid sequence [Arg-Gly-Asp], a nonregulatory peptide used

Matched-pair, 86Y/90Y-labeled, bivalent RGD/bombesin antagonist, [RGD-Glu-[DO3A]-6-Ahx-RM2], as a potential theranostic agent for prostate cancer.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND In this study, we describe development of a true matched-pair theranostic agent that is able to target the αVβ3 integrin and the gastrin releasing peptide receptor (GRPR). We herein describe methods to metallate and characterize the new conjugate and to validate its biological efficacy by

Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of peptide-NSAID conjugates for targeted cancer therapy.

Only registered users can translate articles

Linear arginine-glycine-aspartic acid (RGD) and asparagine-glycine-arginine (NGR) peptide-nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug conjugates were synthesized to evaluate their anticancer effect. Two well-known targeting peptide sequences, RGD and NGR, were conjugated with naproxen and ibuprofen. It is

Disruption of Tumor Cells Using a pH-Activated and Thermosensitive Antitumor Lipopeptide Containing a Leucine Zipper Structure.

Only registered users can translate articles

Antitumor peptides may potentially alleviate the problem of chemoresistance but do not yet target tumor cells and would be cytotoxic to normal cells. Here, we designed a pH-activated and thermosensitive lipopeptide (C6-Pep) containing a leucine zipper and an alkyl chain and assessed the ability of

Multi-responsive polymer micelles as ellipticine delivery carriers for cancer therapy.

Only registered users can translate articles

In the present study, we describe the synthesis and physicochemical properties of a novel pH- and thermoresponsive micellar drug delivery system for an anticancer ellipticinium derivative based on the triblock copolymer poly(ethylene

Fabrication of Red Blood Cell-Based Multimodal Theranostic Probes for Second Near-Infrared Window Fluorescence Imaging-Guided Tumor Surgery and Photodynamic Therapy.

Only registered users can translate articles

The therapeutic efficacy of fluorescence image-guided tumor surgery and photodynamic therapy (PDT) is impaired by the penetration depth limitation, low signal-to-noise ratio of traditional first near-infrared window (NIR I) fluorescence and the hypoxic tumor microenvironment. Here, a "red blood

Inactivation of protein farnesyltransferase by active-site-targeted dicarbonyl compounds.

Only registered users can translate articles

Upon farnesylation by protein farnesyltransferase (FTase), key proteins become compartmentalized in cells. For example, cell membrane localization is essential for the mitogenic role of mutant Ras protein, which acts as a switch for cancer cell proliferation. We report that alpha-dicarbonyl

Synergetic effects of DNA demethylation and histone deacetylase inhibition in primary rat hepatocytes.

Only registered users can translate articles

Both, DNA methylation and histone deacetylation play a crucial role in cancer development by silencing the expression of specific tumour suppressor genes. Several studies describe the use of combinations of DNA methyltransferase inhibitors (DNMT-i) and histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDAC-i) as an

[GC-MS analysis and cytotoxic activity of the supercritical extracts from roots and stems of Zanthoxylum nitidum].

Only registered users can translate articles

The volatile components of roots and stems of Zanthoxylum nitidum were investigated by supercritical fluid carbon dioxide extraction (SFE-CO2) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry(GC-MS). Thirty-one and fifty-one compounds were identified in the supercritical extracts from roots and stems of Z.

Synthesis and cytotoxic evaluation of two novel anthraquinone derivatives.

Only registered users can translate articles

The antitumor activity of dihydroxyanthracenediones such as mitoxantrone on a panel of cancer cell lines during the last 30 years, led investigators to synthesize thousands of anthracycline analogs and test their cytotoxicity to identify compounds superior to the parent drugs in terms of increased

Functional analysis of protein disulfide isomerase P5 in glioblastoma cells as a novel anticancer target.

Only registered users can translate articles

P5, which is a member of the protein disulfide isomerase family, possesses isomerase and chaperone activity in vitro; however, the physiological functions of this enzyme in cells remain unclear. To understand the important roles of P5 in cancer cells, the present study examined its expression on the

Molecular and cellular characterization of the biological effects of ruthenium(II) complexes incorporating 2-pyridyl-2-pyrimidine-4-carboxylic acid.

Only registered users can translate articles

A great majority of the Ru complexes currently studied in anticancer research exert their antiproliferative activity, at least partially, through ligand exchange. In recent years, however, coordinatively saturated and substitutionally inert polypyridyl Ru(II) compounds have emerged as potential

Nanoassemblies from amphiphilic cytarabine prodrug for leukemia targeted therapy.

Only registered users can translate articles

The anti-leukemia effect of cytarabine (Ara-C) is severely restricted by its high hydrophilic properties and rapid plasma degradation. Herein, a novel amphiphilic small molecular prodrug of Ara-C was developed by coupling a short aliphatic chain, hexanoic acid (HA) to 4-NH2 of the parent drug. Based

Shikimoyl-ligand decorated gold nanoparticles for use in ex vivo engineered dendritic cell based DNA vaccination.

Only registered users can translate articles

Since mannose receptors (MRs) are expressed on the surfaces of dendritic cells (DCs), the most professional antigen presenting cells in our body, DNA vaccine carriers containing either covalently grafted mannosyl- or mannose-mimicking shikimoyl-ligands are being increasingly used in ex vivo
