Three strategies for chemoselective labeling of RGD peptides with (18)F have been compared. Aminooxy [(18)F]fluorobenzaldehyde conjugation provided 40 +/- 12% decay-corrected radiochemical yield using a fully automated method. An one-pot protocol for 'click labeling' of the RGD scaffold with 2-[(18)F]fluoroethylazide afforded 47 +/- 8% decay-corrected radiochemical yield. Attempted conjugation with 3-[(18)F]fluoropropanethiol led to extensive decomposition and was therefore found unsuitable for labeling of the RGD peptide investigated. The results suggest that 'click labeling' of RGD peptides provides an attractive alternative to aminooxy aldehyde condensation, however, 2-[(18)F]-fluoroethylazide may be too small to allow separation of large (18)F-labeled RGD peptides from their precursors.

Oncolytic adenoviruses derived from human serotype 5 (Ad5) are being developed to treat cancer. Treatment efficacy could be affected by pre-existing or induced neutralizing antibodies (NAbs), in particular in repeat administration strategies. Several oncolytic adenoviruses that are currently in clinical development have modified fiber proteins to increase their infectivity.

Myocardial infarction (MI) is a leading cause of heart failure and death in cardiovascular diseases. Most drug trials currently fail due to inadequate local drug activity and side effects. In this study, we developed a novel polydopamine (PDA) nano delivery system that carries sodium ferulate (SF) and is modified with RGD peptides (SF/RGD-PDA NPs) for precise targeted delivery.

Under benign conditions, bone tissue can regenerate itself without external intervention. However, this regenerative capacity can be compromised by various factors, most importantly related with the extent of the injury. Critical-sized defects, exceeding the body's natural healing ability, demand the use of temporary or permanent devices like artificial joints or bone substitutes.
