Lyophilized NOTA-NT-20.3 (Ac-Lys(NOTA)-Pro-NMeArg-Arg-Pro-Tyr-Tle-Leu, 1383.6 g/mol, “NT”, CPC Scientific) was diluted to 1 mg/mL in ultrapure water (Milli-Q, >18.2 MΩ-cm) and used without further purification.
Abstract
Neurotensin receptor 1 (NTSR1) can stimulate tumor proliferation through neurotensin (NTS) activation and are overexpressed by a variety of cancers. The high binding affinity of NTS/NTSR1 makes radiolabeled NTS derivatives interesting for cancer diagnosis and staging. Internalization of NTS/NTSR1 also suggests therapeutic application with high LET alpha particles and low energy electrons. We investigated the therapeutic efficacy of [58mCo]Co-NOTA-NT-20.3 in vivo using murine models xenografted with NTSR1-positive HT29 human colorectal adenocarcinoma cells, and utilized [55Co]Co-NOTA-NT-20.3 for dosimetry.

President Theresa Cheng spoke to PhD students at Weill Cornell Graduate School, sharing industry insights and exploring how academic research today can translate into tomorrow’s cutting-edge healthcare leadership.
Our team has developed an innovative DMF recycling strategy that substantially reduces solvent consumption during solid-phase peptide synthesis. Minimizing use of DMF, a major environmental and cost contributor in peptide manufacturing, has improved process sustainability and cost efficiency. This method neatly demonstrates how targeted green chemistry practices can be successfully integrated into large-scale SPPS, supporting more environmentally responsible and economically viable peptide production.
