Characterization of peptides and phage that bind galectin-3 selected from bacteriophage display libraries: a study of the role of galectin-3 in metastasis-associated cancer cell adhesion
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
Intravascular cancer cell adhesion plays a significant role in the metastatic process. Studies indicate that galectin-3, a member of the galectin family of soluble animal lectins, is involved in carbohydrate-mediated ...
The use of FD-filamentous bacteriophage for the in vivo imaging of cancer
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
Improved diagnosis of cancer through targeted imaging of neoplasms is needed for early detection and treatment of cancer. We propose that the physical characteristics of filamentous bacteriophage (phage) are well suited ...
Phage display peptides for breast cancer targeting
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
Cancer cell surfaces differ from healthy cell surfaces allowing the detection of cancer targets on the cell. Use of these targets combined with radiolabeled targeting vehicles results in sensitive imaging agents, with ...
Development of novel breast cancer-targeted spect imaging peptides by phage display
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)
Malignancy of the breast is the leading cause of cancer among women and the second leading cause of cancer-related death. Despite implementation of mammograms and breast exams, there still exists a need to detect highly ...
Bacteriophage display selections of ovarian cancer avid peptides
