Gold-coated lanthanide phosphate nanoparticles for targeted radiotherapy
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2016)The success of a targeted radiotherapy system depends on its ability to carry and deliver its radioactive payload to a specific site. Lanthanide phosphate nanoparticles are highly stable in a variety of solvents. By ... -
A study of interpolating moving least-squares method on fitting potential energy surface
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2016)Interpolating moving least-squares method (IMLS) is a highly accurate fitting method. There are a lot of studies on how to use IMLS to fit potential energy surfaces (PESs). However, there are still only few IMLS-fitted ... -
Synthesis and properties of small molecules designed to covalently capture native and oxidized forms of protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B)
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2016)[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) is a validated target for the treatment of type 2 diabetes and obesity. The discovery of selective inhibitors ... -
Technetium and rhenium (I and V) complexes for radiopharmaceutical applications
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2016)Technetium and rhenium have radioactive isotopes that are clinically useful for diagnostic (Tc-99m) or therapeutic (Re-186/188) purposes. This makes them attractive candidates for incorporation into pharmaceuticals. One ...
