Development of novel compounds for the molecular imaging of hypoxia: 18F-labeled nitroimidazoles and hypoxia inducible factor 1 alpha (HIF-1a)-targeting compounds
DownloadSpring 2023
Imaging of hypoxia has been previously achieved using positron emission tomography (PET) with radiotracers such as [18F]fluoroazomycin arabinoside ([18F]FAZA) [1] or [18F]fluoromisonidazole ([18F]FMISO) [2]. These typical nitroimidazole containing compounds are reductively trapped in hypoxic...

Evaluation of Hypoxia Induced Regulation of Nucleoside and Amino Acid Membrane Transporters in Breast Cancer
DownloadSpring 2020
Positron Emission Tomography (PET) utilizes radioactively tagged molecules to identify cancerous tissue. In most cases, membrane transporters control entry of these molecules into human cancer cells. Hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1 is the master homeostatic regulator during hypoxia in human...
