In certain aspects, the invention relates to processes for using renally excretable optical agents to detect one or more tissues of the renal system of a surgical patient. In certain aspects, the invention relates to a kit including a biocompatible composition containing one or more optical agents and instructions for using the optical agent(s) in a process of the present invention.
摘要:
The present invention relates to pyrazine derivatives represented by Formula I. X1 and X2 of Formula I may be characterized as electron withdrawing groups, while Y1 and Y2 of Formula I may be characterized as electron donating groups. Pyrazine derivatives of the present invention may be utilized in assessing organ (e.g., kidney) function. In a particular example, an effective amount of a pyrazine derivative that is capable of being renally cleared may be administered into a patient's body. The pyrazine derivative may be capable of one or both absorbing and emanating spectral energy of at least about 400 nm (e.g., visible and/or infrared light). At least some of the derivative that is in the body may be exposed to spectral energy and, in turn, spectral energy may emanate from the derivative. This emanating spectral energy may be detected and utilized to determine renal function of the patient
摘要:
The present invention provides conjugates useful for the diagnosis and treatment of diseases associated with the over-expression of COX-2. The conjugates comprise a selective COX-2 targeting carrier, a metal coordinating moiety, and a linker chemically linking the metal coordinating moiety to the carrier. The metals coordinated by the metal coordinating moiety are selected from paramagnetic or radioisotopes. The invention also includes kits comprising a conjugate and a radioisotope solution.
摘要:
This invention is directed to the general method of transforming non-photoactive bioactive small molecule compounds of known structure and function into photoactive analogs of the small molecules which exhibit both photoactivity and the original biological targeting activity. The general method for the design of the photoactive analogs of the small molecules includes: (a) selecting a desired bioactive molecule; (b) identifying the region of the molecule that contains an aromatic or a heteroaromatic motif; and (c) either replacing said motif with a photoactive functional group of similar size, or modifying said motif to make it photoactive. Other aspects include photoactive analog compounds and photodiagnostic and phototherapeutic uses thereof.
