<h4>Purpose</h4>This study aimed to create new optical surgical navigation NIRF probes for prostate and breast cancers.<h4>Procedures</h4>IR800-linker-QWAVGHLM-NH2 with linker = GSG, GGG, and G-Abz4 were synthesized and characterized. IC50 for bombesin receptors (BBN-R) in PC-3 prostate and T47D breast cancer cells, fluorescence microscopy in PC-3 cells, and NIRF imaging in mice PC-3 tumor xenografts were studied.<h4>Results</h4>GGG, GSG, and G-Abz4 derivatives had IC50 (nM) for BBN-R+ PC-3 cell ...[more]
