Application of new bifunctional chelator DOTA and its derivatives in the metal radionuclide labeled compounds / 中华核医学与分子影像杂志

ABSTRACT

DOTA and its derivatives are most widely uscd novel bifunctional chelators.They have not only mature synthesis route,but also good coordination and chelating ability.Therefore,DOTA metal complexes of DOTA-peptide conjugates are increasingly used as MRI contrast agents,radionuclide targeted imaging agents and therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals in the biomedical field.This review covers the bifunctional derivatives of DOTA,the synthesis of DOTA-peptide conjugates,and the applications of DOTA-peptide conjugate metal complexes.
