background: bombesin shows high affinity for gastrin-releasing peptide (grp) receptors which over expressed on the cell surfaces of several human tumors particularly in prostate and breast cancers. the aim of this study was labeling of designed analogue with99mtc via hynic and tricine /edda and evaluation as potential targeted tumor scintigraphic agent.materials and methods: hynic-bombesin was ...

background: chlorotoxin is a 36-amino acid peptide found in the venom of the leiurus quinquestriatus which blocks small-conductance chloride channels. chlorotoxin binds preferentially to glioma cells that allow development of new methods for the treatment and diagnosis of several types of cancer. thus chlorotoxin derivative was labeled with 131i for further investigation. materials and methods:...
