A convenient and efficient total solid-phase synthesis of DOTA-functionalized tumor-targeting peptides for PET imaging of cancer

Abstract Introduction An efficient and cost-effective synthesis of the metal chelating agents that couple to tumor-targeting peptides is required to enhance the process of preclinical research toward the clinical translation of molecular imaging agents. DOTA is one of the most widely used macrocycli...
