Abstract EN
Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC), the most aggressive breast cancer type, is associated with high mortality and recurrence rates.
An active-targeted strategy based on homing peptides is an effective approach to diagnose and treat cancer as it can deliver imaging agents or therapeutic drugs into desired tissues and accumulate less into off-target tissues.
As a homing peptide, LyP-1 has shown properties of targeting, internalization, and proapoptosis to TNBC.
In the study, we designed a Technetium-99m- (99mTc-) labeled LyP-1 and investigated its feasibility for targeted single-positron emission computed tomography (SPECT) imaging of TNBC.
The results showed that the LyP-1 peptide had acceptable biocompatibility in the studied concentration range and could specifically bind to TNBC cells in vitro.
99mTc-labeled LyP-1 showed high radiochemical purity and stability and could be used as a probe for targeted SPECT imaging of TNBC cells in vitro and in a TNBC tumor-bearing mouse model.
Our findings indicate that this active-targeted strategy has great potential to be developed into a new imaging tool for TNBC diagnosis.
