Molecular probes for detecting and imaging pancreatic cancer are disclosed. The probes are modified benzoxanthene fluorophores, which are selectively taken up by pancreatic cancer cells, such as pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma cells. Embodiments of the disclosed probes are useful for pancreatic cancer detection, therapeutic monitoring, and/or image-guided surgery.
揭示了用于检测和成像胰腺癌的分子探针。这些探针是经过改造的苯并氧
喹啉荧光
染料,能够被选择性地吸收胰腺癌细胞,如胰腺导管腺癌细胞。所述探针的实施形式可用于胰腺癌的检测、治疗监测和/或图像引导手术。
