Research Abstract |
It is of key importance to create novel diagnostic and treatment products for tailor-made medicine. In this study, we developed novel molecular probes targeting activated-EGFR which is known to be involved in carcinogenesis and tumor malignancy. Probe retention in cells was correlated with EGFR activation, and the uptake pattern into tissues was dependent on EGFR amount/activation. In addition, tumor growth was dramatically suppressed with consecutive probe injection. This study could help the development of cancer diagnosis and cancer therapy.
