Conjugates of Bifunctional Chelating Agents with Mannosyl Phosphorus Albumin and Radioisotope Labeling Compounds for Immune Cell Imaging and Detection

摘要

The present invention is about bifunctional chelating agents (BCA) conjugated mannosyl human serum albumin (MSA) and its radioisotope labeled compounds for imaging immune system such as macrophages, Kupffer cells, reticuloendothelial system (RES), and lymphatic system. The present invention comprises BCA-MSA conjugates, their radiolabeled compounds, and kits for radiolabeing. The present invention improved radiolabeling procedure, showed higher lymphatic system uptake, and enabled image by positron emission tomography (PET).
