Inflammation and oxidative stress in carcinogenesis

Oxidant carcinogens interact with multiple cellular targets including membranes, proteins, and nucleic acids. They cause structural damage to DNA and have the potential to mutate cancer-related gen...

The role of the cellular antioxidant defense in oxidant carcinogenesis.

Elevated energy expenditure in cancer patients with solid tumours.

This invention relates to radiolabeled peptides and methods for producing such peptides. Specifically, the invention relates to technetium-99m (Tc-99m) labeled leukocyte-binding peptides, methods and kits for making such peptides, and methods for using such peptides to image sites of infection and inflammation in a mammalian body.

Technetium-99m labeled peptides for imaging inflammation

The invention relates to radiolabeled imaging of a mammalian body. The invention in particular provides for reagents labeled with technetium-99m for such imaging. The invention provides peptides which bind technetium-99m and which can be targeted to specific sites within a mammalian body.

Technetium-99m labeled polypeptides for imaging
