dc.description.abstract | Introduction: In the present study, we describe a Cu-64-radiolabeled heterodimeric peptide conjugate for dual alpha(v)beta(3)/GRPr (alpha(v)beta(3) integrin/gastrin releasing peptide receptor) targeting of the form [RGD-Glu-[Cu-64-NO2A]-6-Ahx-RM2] (RGD: the amino acid sequence [Arg-Gly-Asp], a nonregulatory peptide used for alpha(v)beta(3) integrin receptor targeting; Glu: glutamic acid; NO2A: 1,4,7-triazacyclononane-1,4-diacetic acid; 6-Ahx: 6-amino hexanoic acid; and RM2: (D-Phe-Gln-Trp-Ala-Val-Gly-His-Sta-Leu-NH2), an antagonist analogue of bombesin (BBN) peptide used for GRPr targeting). Methods: RGD-Glu-6Ahx-RM21 was conjugated to a NOTA (1,4,7-triazacyclononane-1,4,7-triacetic acid) complexing agent to produce [RGD-Glu-[NO2A]-6-Ahx-RM2], which was purified by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) and characterized by electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry (ESI-MS). Radiolabeling of the conjugate with Cu-64 produced [RGD-Glu-[64Cu-NO2A]-6-Ahx-RM2 in high radiochemical yield (>= 95%). In vivo behavior of the radiolabeled peptide conjugate was investigated in normal CF-1 mice and in the PC-3 human prostate cancer experimental model. Results: A competitive displacement receptor binding assay in human prostate PC-3 cells using I-125-[Tyr(4)]BBN as the radioligand showed high binding affinity of [RGD-Glu-[Cu-nat-NO2A]-6-Ahx-RM21 conjugate for the GRPr (3.09 +/- 0.34 nM). A similar assay in human, glioblastoma U87-MG cells using I-125-Echistatin as the radioligand indicated a moderate receptor-binding affinity for the alpha(v)beta(3) integrin (518 +/- 37.5 nM). In vivo studies of [RGD-Glu-[Cu-64-NO2A]-6-Ahx-RM2] showed high accumulation (4.86 +/- 1.01 %ID/g, 1 h post-intravenous injection (p.i.)) and prolonged retention (4.26 +/- 1.23 %ID/g, 24 h p.i.) of tracer in PC-3 tumor-bearing mice. Micro-positron emission tomography (microPET) molecular imaging studies produced high-quality, high contrast images in PC-3 tumor-bearing mice at 4 h p.i. Conclusions: The favorable pharmacokinetics and enhanced tumor uptake of Cu-64-NOTA-RGD-Glu-6Ahx-RM2 warrant further investigations for dual integrin and GRPr-positive tumor imaging and possible radiotherapy.
