| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Nanoparticles in the blood stream with diameters from a few tens of nm to 200 nm are expected to accumulate in solid tumors due to the enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect. We focus on and have developed micelles composed of amphiphilic polymer “Lactosome” for cancer imaging probes, as a novel nanocarrier which possesses a tumor accumulation property due to the EPR effect. We reported previously radiosynthesis and a successful in vivo imaging of mouse tumor of 18F-labeled Lactosome as the preliminary study with using small animal PET. In this study, in order to elucidation further characteristics of Lactosomes with aim of developing radiotracers for in vivo solid tumor imaging by SPECT, some kind of radioiodine-labeled Lactosomes were synthesized and evaluated in tumor or inflammation model mice.
