Abstract
Introduction: New 188Re and 99mTc peptide conjugates with substance- P (SP) were prepared and biologically evaluated. The radiopharmaceuticals have been labelled with the [M " N]2þ (M¼99mTc, 188Re) core using a combination of pi-donor tridentate and pi-acceptor monodentate ancillary ligands.
Methods: The new radiopharmaceuticals have been prepared through a two-step reaction by simultaneous addition of the tridentate and monodentate ligands to a vial containing a preformed [M" N]2þ core. The tridentate ligand was formed by linking two cysteine residues to the terminal arginine of the undecapeptide SP, whereas the monodentate ligand was a tertiary phosphine. The preparation of the corresponding Re-188 derivative required developing a more complex chemical procedure to obtain the [Re = N]2þ core in satisfactory yields. Characterization of the resulting products was obtained by chromatographic methods. Biological evaluation was performed for both Tc-99m and Re-188 derivatives
by in-vitro studies on isolated cells expressing NK1-receptors. In-vivo imaging in mice was carried out
using a small-animal YAP(S)PET tomograph.
Conclusion: New Tc-99m and Re-188 peptide radiopharmaceuticals with SP have been prepared in highyield and with high-specifc activity. Both Tc-99m and Re-188 peptide radioconjugates exhibit high affnity for NK1 receptors, thus giving further evidence to the empirical rule that structurally related Tc-99m and Re-188 radiopharmaceuticals exhibit identical biological properties.
