A Structure-Activity Relationship Study of Bimodal BODIPY-Labeled PSMA-Targeting Bioconjugates
CHEMMEDCHEM(2021)
摘要
The aim of this study was to identify a high-affinity BODIPY peptidomimetic that targets the prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) as a potential bimodal imaging probe for prostate cancer. For the structure-activity study, several BODIPY (difluoroboron dipyrromethene) derivatives with varying spacers between the BODIPY dye and the PSMA Glu-CO-Lys binding motif were prepared. Corresponding affinities were determined by competitive binding assays in PSMA-positive LNCaP cells. One compound was identified with comparable affinity (IC50=21.5 +/- 0.1 nM) to Glu-CO-Lys-Ahx-HBED-CC (PSMA-11) (IC50=18.4 +/- 0.2 nM). Radiolabeling was achieved by Lewis-acid-mediated F-19/F-18 exchange in moderate molar activities (similar to 0.7 MBq nmol(-1)) and high radiochemical purities (>99 %) with mean radiochemical yields of 20-30 %. Cell internalization of the F-18-labeled high-affinity conjugate was demonstrated in LNCaP cells showing gradual increasing PSMA-mediated internalization over time. By fluorescence microscopy, localization of the high-affinity BODIPY-PSMA conjugate was found in the cell membrane at early time points and also in subcellular compartments at later time points. In summary, a high-affinity BODIPY-PSMA conjugate has been identified as a suitable candidate for the development of PSMA-specific dual-imaging agents.
