BR55: A Lipopeptide-Based VEGFR2-Targeted Ultrasound Contrast Agent for Molecular Imaging of Angiogenesis
@article{Pochon2010BR55AL, title={BR55: A Lipopeptide-Based VEGFR2-Targeted Ultrasound Contrast Agent for Molecular Imaging of Angiogenesis}, author={S. Pochon and I. Tardy and P. Bussat and T. Bettinger and J. Brochot and M. V. von Wronski and L. Passantino and M. Schneider}, journal={Investigative Radiology}, year={2010}, volume={45}, pages={89-95} }
Objectives:BR55, an ultrasound contrast agent functionalized with a heterodimer peptide targeting the vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2), was evaluated in vitro and in vivo, demonstrating its potential for specific tumor detection. Materials and Methods:The targeted contrast agent was prepared by incorporation of a biospecific lipopeptide into the microbubble membrane. Experiments were performed in vitro to demonstrate the binding capacities of BR55 microbubbles on… CONTINUE READING
