Design and preclinical evaluation of a novel apelin-based PET radiotracer targeting APJ receptor for molecular imaging of angiogenesis. Angiogenesis 2023; 26:463-475. [PMID: 36973482 PMCID: PMC10328853 DOI: 10.1007/s10456-023-09875-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/05/2023] [Accepted: 03/17/2023] [Indexed: 03/29/2023]
Abstract
APJ has been extensively described in the pathophysiology of angiogenesis and cell proliferation. The prognostic value of APJ overexpression in many diseases is now established. This study aimed to design a PET radiotracer that specifically binds to APJ. Apelin-F13A-NODAGA (AP747) was synthesized and radiolabeled with gallium-68 ([68Ga]Ga-AP747). Radiolabeling purity was excellent (> 95%) and stable up to 2 h. Affinity constant of [67Ga]Ga-AP747 was measured on APJ-overexpressing colon adenocarcinoma cells and was in nanomolar range. Specificity of [68Ga]Ga-AP747 for APJ was evaluated in vitro by autoradiography and in vivo by small animal PET/CT in both colon adenocarcinoma mouse model and Matrigel plug mouse model. Dynamic of [68Ga]Ga-AP747 PET/CT biodistributions was realized on healthy mice and pigs for two hours, and quantification of signal in organs showed a suitable pharmacokinetic profile for PET imaging, largely excreted by urinary route. Matrigel mice and hindlimb ischemic mice were submitted to a 21-day longitudinal follow-up with [68Ga]Ga-AP747 and [68Ga]Ga-RGD2 small animal PET/CT. [68Ga]Ga-AP747 PET signal in Matrigel was significantly more intense than that of [68Ga]Ga-RGD2. Revascularization of the ischemic hind limb was followed by LASER Doppler. In the hindlimb, [68Ga]Ga-AP747 PET signal was more than twice higher than that of [68Ga]Ga-RGD2 on day 7, and significantly superior over the 21-day follow-up. A significant, positive correlation was found between the [68Ga]Ga-AP747 PET signal on day 7 and late hindlimb perfusion on day 21. We developed a new PET radiotracer that specifically binds to APJ, [68Ga]Ga-AP747 that showed more efficient imaging properties than the most clinically advanced tracer of angiogenesis, [68Ga]Ga-RGD2.

Abstract
One out of eight women will be affected by breast cancer during her lifetime. Imaging plays a key role in breast cancer detection and management, providing physicians with information about tumor location, heterogeneity, and dissemination. In this review, we describe the latest advances in PET/CT imaging of breast cancer, including novel applications of 18F-FDG PET/CT and the development and testing of new agents for primary and metastatic breast tumor imaging and therapy. Ultimately, these radiopharmaceuticals may guide personalized approaches to optimize treatment based on the patient's specific tumor profile, and may become a new standard of care. In addition, they may enhance the assessment of treatment efficacy and lead to improved outcomes for patients with a breast cancer diagnosis.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) is a collective term describing a range of conditions that affect the heart and blood vessels. Due to the varied nature of the disorders, distinguishing between their causes and monitoring their progress is crucial for finding an effective treatment. Molecular imaging enables non-invasive visualisation and quantification of biological pathways, even at the molecular and subcellular levels, what is essential for understanding the causes and development of CVD. Positron emission tomography imaging is so far recognized as the best method for in vivo studies of the CVD related phenomena. The imaging is based on the use of radioisotope-labelled markers, which have been successfully used in both pre-clinical research and clinical studies. Current research on CVD with the use of such radioconjugates constantly increases our knowledge and understanding of the causes, and brings us closer to effective monitoring and treatment. This review outlines recent advances in the use of the so-far available radioisotope markers in the research on cardiovascular diseases in rodent models, points out the problems and provides a perspective for future applications of PET imaging in CVD studies.

Abstract
Since the introduction of PET/CT hybrid imaging about two decades ago the landscape of oncological imaging has fundamentally changed, opening a new era of molecular imaging with emphasis on functional characterization of biological processes such as metabolism, cellular proliferation, hypoxia, apoptosis, angiogenesis and immune response. The most commonly assessed functional hallmark of cancer is the increased metabolism in tumor cells due to well-known Warburg effect, because of which FDG has been the most employed radiotracer, the so-called pan-cancer agent, in oncological imaging. However, several limitations such as low specificity and low sensitivity for several histopathological forms of lung cancer as well as high background uptake in the normal tissue of FDG imaging lead to numerous serious pitfalls. This restricts its utilization and diagnostic value in lung cancer imaging, even though this is currently considered to be the method of choice in pulmonary cancer imaging. Accurate initial tumor staging and therapy response monitoring with respect to the TNM criteria plays a crucial role in therapy planning and management in patients with lung cancer. To this end, many efforts have been made for decades to develop novel PET radiopharmaceuticals with innovative approaches that go beyond the assessment of increased glycolytic activity alone. Radiopharmaceuticals targeting DNA synthesis, amino acid metabolism, angiogenesis, or hypoxia have been extensively studied, leading to the emergence of indications for specific clinical questions or as a complementary imaging tool alongside existing conventional or FDG imaging. Nevertheless, despite some initial encouraging results, these tracers couldn't gain a widespread use and acceptance in clinical routine. However, given its mechanism of action and some initial pilot studies regarding lung cancer imaging, FAPI has emerged as a very promising alternative tool that could provide superior or comparable diagnostic performance to FDG imaging in lung cancer entities. Thus, in this review article, we summarized the current PET radiopharmaceuticals, different imaging approaches and discussed the potential benefits and clinical applications of these agents in lung cancer imaging.

Abstract
Targeted radionuclide theranostics is becoming more and more prominent in clinical oncology. Currently, most nuclear medicine compounds researched for cancer theranostics are directed towards targets expressed in only a small subset of cancer types, limiting clinical applicability. The identification of cancer-specific targets that are (more) universally expressed will allow more cancer patients to benefit from these personalized nuclear medicine–based interventions. A tumor is not merely a collection of cancer cells, it also comprises supporting stromal cells embedded in an altered extracellular matrix (ECM), together forming the tumor microenvironment (TME). Since the TME is less genetically unstable than cancer cells, and TME phenotypes can be shared between cancer types, it offers targets that are more universally expressed. The TME is characterized by the presence of altered processes such as hypoxia, acidity, and increased metabolism. Next to the ECM, the TME consists of cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs), macrophages, endothelial cells forming the neo-vasculature, immune cells, and cancer-associated adipocytes (CAAs). Radioligands directed at the altered processes, the ECM, and the cellular components of the TME have been developed and evaluated in preclinical and clinical studies for targeted radionuclide imaging and/or therapy. In this review, we provide an overview of the TME targets and their corresponding radioligands. In addition, we discuss what developments are needed to further explore the TME as a target for radionuclide theranostics, with the hopes of stimulating the development of novel TME radioligands with multi-cancer, or in some cases even pan-cancer, application.

Abstract
Extensive angiogenesis is a characteristic feature in the synovial tissue of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) from a very early stage of the disease onward and constitutes a crucial event for the development of the proliferative synovium. This process is markedly intensified in patients with prolonged disease duration, high disease activity, disease severity, and significant inflammatory cell infiltration. Angiogenesis is therefore an interesting target for the development of new therapeutic approaches as well as disease monitoring strategies in RA. To this end, nuclear imaging modalities represent valuable non-invasive tools that can selectively target molecular markers of angiogenesis and accurately and quantitatively track molecular changes in multiple joints simultaneously. This systematic review summarizes the imaging markers used for single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and/or positron emission tomography (PET) approaches, targeting pathways and mediators involved in synovial neo-angiogenesis in RA.

Abstract
During the past several decades, numerous studies have provided insights into biological characteristics of cancer cells and identified various hallmarks of cancer acquired in the tumorigenic processes. However, it is still challenging to image these distinctive traits of cancer to facilitate the management of patients in clinical settings. The rapidly evolving field of positron emission tomography (PET) imaging has provided opportunities to investigate cancer's biological characteristics in vivo. This article reviews the current status of PET imaging on characterizing hallmarks of cancer and discusses the future directions of PET imaging strategies facilitating in vivo cancer phenotyping. Various direct and indirect imaging strategies have been developed in positron emission tomography. Positron emission tomography has shown great potential in characterizing cancer hallmarks in vivo.

Abstract
Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs), the most abundant inflammatory cell group in the tumor microenvironment, play an essential role in tumor immune regulation. The infiltration degree of TAMs in the tumor microenvironment is closely related to tumor growth and metastasis, and TAMs have become a promising target in tumor immunotherapy. Molecular imaging is a new interdisciplinary subject that combines medical imaging technology with molecular biology, nuclear medicine, radiation medicine, and computer science. The latest progress in molecular imaging allows the biological processes of cells to be visualized in vivo, which makes it possible to better understand the density and distribution of macrophages in the tumor microenvironment. This review mainly discusses the application of targeting TAM in tumor immunotherapy and the imaging characteristics and progress of targeting TAM molecular probes using various imaging techniques.

Abstract
The angiogenesis process is a phenomenon in which numerous molecules participate in the stimulation of the new vessels' formation from pre-existing vessels. Angiogenesis is a crucial step in tissue regeneration and recovery of organ and tissue function. Muscle diseases affect millions of people worldwide overcome the ability of skeletal muscle to self-repair. Pro-angiogenic therapies are key in skeletal muscle regeneration where both myogenesis and angiogenesis occur. These therapies have been based on mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), exosomes, microRNAs (miRs) and delivery of biological factors. The use of different calls of biomaterials is another approach, including ceramics, composites, and polymers. Natural polymers are use due its bioactivity and biocompatibility in addition to its use as scaffolds and in drug delivery systems. One of these polymers is the natural rubber latex (NRL) which is biocompatible, bioactive, versatile, low-costing, and capable of promoting tissue regeneration and angiogenesis. In this review, the advances in the field of pro-angiogenic therapies are discussed.

Comparison of a New 68Ga-Radiolabelled PET Imaging Agent sCD146 and RGD Peptide for In Vivo Evaluation of Angiogenesis in Mouse Model of Myocardial Infarction. Cells 2021; 10:cells10092305. [PMID: 34571954 PMCID: PMC8466330 DOI: 10.3390/cells10092305] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/28/2021] [Revised: 08/31/2021] [Accepted: 08/31/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Ischemic vascular diseases are associated with elevated tissue expression of angiomotin (AMOT), a promising molecular target for PET imaging. On that basis, we developed an AMOT-targeting radiotracer, 68Ga-sCD146 and performed the first in vivo evaluation on a myocardial infarction mice model and then, compared AMOT expression and αvβ3-integrin expression with 68Ga-sCD146 and 68Ga-RGD2 imaging. After myocardial infarction (MI) induced by permanent ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery, myocardial perfusion was evaluated by Doppler ultrasound and by 18F-FDG PET imaging. 68Ga-sCD146 and 68Ga-RGD2 PET imaging were performed. In myocardial infarction model, heart-to-muscle ratio of 68Ga-sCD146 imaging showed a significantly higher radiotracer uptake in the infarcted area of MI animals than in sham (* p = 0.04). Interestingly, we also observed significant correlations between 68Ga-sCD146 imaging and delayed residual perfusion assessed by 18F-FDG (* p = 0.04), with lowest tissue fibrosis assessed by histological staining (* p = 0.04) and with functional recovery assessed by ultrasound imaging (** p = 0.01). 68Ga-sCD146 demonstrated an increase in AMOT expression after MI. Altogether, significant correlations of early post-ischemic 68Ga-sCD146 uptake with late heart perfusion, lower tissue fibrosis and better functional recovery, make 68Ga-sCD146 a promising radiotracer for tissue angiogenesis assessment after MI.

Abstract
Exosomes are vesicles secreted by a variety of living cells, containing proteins, RNA and other components, which are nanoscale capsules commonly existed in the body. Exosomes play important roles in a variety of physiological and pathological processes by participating in material and information exchange between cells, which can play multiple roles in tumor treatment. On the one hand, exosomes can be used as carriers and biomarkers, participate in the apoptosis signaling pathway and improve chemotherapy resistance, thus playing beneficial roles in tumor treatment. On the other hand, exosomes play unfavorable roles in tumor treatment. Tumor cell exosomes contain PD-L1, which is a nuclear weapon for tumor growth, metastasis, and immunosuppression. In addition, exosomes can not only promote the epithelial-mesenchymal transition process, tumor angiogenesis and chemoresistance, but also participate in the autocrine pathway. In this review, the multiple roles of exosomes and their prospects in the treatment of tumor were reviewed in detail.
