Evaluation of Phosphatidylserine-Binding Peptides Radiolabeled with Fluorine 18 for in vivo Imaging of Apoptosis
DownloadSpring 2012
We currently do not have a clinical method to directly assess apoptosis induced by cancer therapies. Phosphatidylserine (PS) is an attractive target for imaging apoptosis since it is on the exterior of the apoptotic cells and PS externalization is an early marker of apoptosis. PS-binding peptides...

Targeting Phosphatidylserine for Positron Emission Tomography Imaging of Cell Death: Annexin V versus Phosphatidylserine-Binding Peptides
DownloadSpring 2016
There is currently no clinically approved, widely used molecular imaging agent for in vivo detection of cell death. Such an agent would be highly useful for early assessment of treatment efficacy in cancer patients, as well as for monitoring many other diseases in which cell death plays an...
