Exploring protocols for synthesis of bombesin peptides derivatives to be used as GRP cancer receptor biomarkers [abstract]
(University of Missouri--Columbia. Office of Undergraduate Research, 2007)
Bombesin (BBN) is a fourteen amino acid peptide that binds to cancer cells overexpressing the gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP) receptor. Only the final eight amino acid chain, BBN[6-13], is responsible for the binding to ...
Studies on radiometal chelator-bombesin peptide-based radiopharmaceuticals for tumor GRP-receptor subtype mediated radioimaging
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Bombesin-like peptides bind to gastrin-releasing peptide receptor subtype 2 (BB2) with significantly high binding affinity and specificity. In an ...
