  • Near-infrared fluorescence imaging of tumor integrin alpha v beta 3 expression with Cy7-labeled RGD multimers.

    Wu Y, Cai W, Chen X. Mol Imaging Biol. 2006 Jul-Aug; 8 (4): 226-36

    Cell adhesion molecule integrin alpha v beta 3 is an excellent target for tumor interventions because of its unique expression on the surface of several types of solid tumor cells and on almost all sprouting tumor vasculatures. Here, we describe the development of near-infrared (NIR) fluorochrome Cy7-labeled RGD peptides for tumor integrin targeting.
