A compound binding to leukocytes, which comprises Met-Leu-Phe or Nle-Leu-Phe serving as the leukocyte-binding site of a formyl peptide receptor (FPR), a binding part comprising Ser or Thr elevating the binding ratios to monocytes and lymphocytes in all leukocytes, a group which can be labeled with a radioactive metal or a paramagnetic metal, and a spacer binding them shows binding properties specific to all leukocytes, i.e., neutrophils, monocytes and lymphocytes both in vivo and in vitro and can be labeled with a radioactive metal or a paramagnetic metal. Owing to these characteristics, this compound is highly useful in SPECT image diagnosis, PET image diagnosis, MRI image diagnosis and so on wherein imaging is performed in a site with vigorous leukocyte infiltration accompanied by an immune reaction in an individual.
一种与白细胞结合的化合物,它由 Met-Leu-Phe 或 Nle-Leu-Phe 组成,作为甲酰肽受体(FPR)的白细胞结合位点;由 Ser 或 Thr 组成的结合部分,可提高在所有白细胞中与单核细胞和淋巴细胞的结合率;可用放射性
金属或顺磁性
金属标记的基团;以及与它们结合的间隔物,显示出与所有白细胞(即中性粒细胞、单核细胞和淋巴细胞)特异的结合特性、中性粒细胞、单核细胞和淋巴细胞,并能用放射性
金属或顺磁性
金属标记。由于具有这些特性,这种化合物在
SPECT 图像诊断、PET 图像诊断、MRI 图像诊断等方面非常有用,因为这些图像诊断是在白细胞大量浸润并伴有免疫反应的部位进行的。
