Abstract

Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) is a biomarker for prostate cancer, which is commonly used in the development of diagnostic and therapeutic drugs for prostate cancer. In this study, rhenium-188 was chelated with mercaptoacetyltriglycine (MAG3)-PSMA to obtain 188Re-MAG3-PSMA. The labeling efficiency was greater than 99% under the optimal labeling conditions, and it was stable in saline and 10% FBS (fetal bovine serum) after 72 h of incubation. In cellular assays, uptake in PSMA (+) 22Rv1 cells was four-fold greater than that in PSMA (-) PC-3 cells. Biodistribution results revealed that the tumor-to-muscle ratio reached a maximum at 4 h after injection.
