Abstract
In this article, we report to the best of our knowledge the first modification of NPs with ligands for combined radiopharmaceuticals. Nanoparticles with suitable magnetic properties can be used both for diagnostics as a contrast for MRI and for therapy, including the insufficiently studied magneto-mechanical therapy. Strontium hexaferrite is one of the few hard-magnetic materials for which stable biocompatible colloidal solutions can be obtained. Strontium hexaferrite nanoparticles coated with silicon dioxide (SHF@SiO2) were modified with an amino silane coupling agent (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane and azacrown ether derivatives with six heteroatoms in rings were covalently linked to the amine group through the carboxyl group. The hard magnetic nanoparticles were then radiolabeled with 207Bi with a labelling yield of up to 99.8%. In vitro experiments showed that the complex SHF@SiO2-APTES-L2-207Bi is stable enough to be a potential theranostic radiopharmaceutical.

Modern Developments in Bifunctional Chelator Design for Gallium Radiopharmaceuticals. MOLECULES (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 28:molecules28010203. [PMID: 36615397 PMCID: PMC9822085 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28010203] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2022] [Revised: 12/19/2022] [Accepted: 12/19/2022] [Indexed: 12/28/2022]
Abstract
The positron-emitting radionuclide gallium-68 has become increasingly utilised in both preclinical and clinical settings with positron emission tomography (PET). The synthesis of radiochemically pure gallium-68 radiopharmaceuticals relies on careful consideration of the coordination chemistry. The short half-life of 68 min necessitates rapid quantitative radiolabelling (≤10 min). Desirable radiolabelling conditions include near-neutral pH, ambient temperatures, and low chelator concentrations to achieve the desired apparent molar activity. This review presents a broad overview of the requirements of an efficient bifunctional chelator in relation to the aqueous coordination chemistry of gallium. Developments in bifunctional chelator design and application are then presented and grouped according to eight categories of bifunctional chelator: the macrocyclic chelators DOTA and TACN; the acyclic HBED, pyridinecarboxylates, siderophores, tris(hydroxypyridinones), and DTPA; and the mesocyclic diazepines.

Abstract
Chelating agents are one of the most important substances in metal extraction, but separation is the main problem in the use of these agents as an adsorbent. After the adsorption of metals by an external magnet, magnetic NPs provide the possibility of easy collecting and isolating the adsorbent nanomaterial for many applications. Given the immense importance of magnetic NPs, there has been widespread interest in accessing the above adsorbent. In the present study, an attempt was made to synthesize acetamido xanthate which was coupled to NPs and has the potential to be used as a nano-adsorbent for the removal of heavy metals. This novel nano sorbent was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transforms infrared (FT-IR), and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. The effect of some parameters such as temperature, time, pH, and the amount of adsorbent on the extraction reaction was investigated. The optimized condition for extraction of cerium was temperature of 30°C, pH = 8, reaction time of 45 minutes using 7.5 mg of the prepared nanosorbent, that in such condition the yield of reaction achieved up to 97%. The prepared adsorbent showed high efficiency in the adsorption of heavy metals specifically.

Abstract
Gold nanoclusters (AuNCs) have attracted much attention for tumor theranostics in recent years because of their ability of renal clearance and to escape the reticuloendothelial system (RES) sequestration. In this study, we presented a novel method to synthesize 68Ga-doped (labeled) AuNCs by simultaneous reduction of 68GaCl3 and HAuCl4 by glutathione. As synthesized 68Ga-doped, glutathione-coated AuNCs (68Ga-GSH@AuNCs) were ultrasmall in size (<2 nm), highly stable under physiological conditions and renally clearable, and had high efficiency for tumor targeting. To demonstrate the universality of this 68Ga labeling method and further enhance tumor targeting efficiency, arginine-glycine-aspartate (RGD)-containing peptide was introduced as co-reductant to synthesize RGD peptide and glutathione co-coated, 68Ga-labeled AuNCs (68Ga-RGD-GSH@AuNCs). Introduction of RGD peptide did not interfere the synthesis process but significantly enhanced the tumor targeting efficiency of the AuNCs. Our study demonstrated that it was feasible to label AuNCs with gallium-68 by direct reduction of the radioisotope and HAuCl4 with reductant peptides, holding a great potential for clinical translation for PET/CT detection of tumors.
