The αvβ6 integrin is involved in the pathogenesis of cancer and fibrosis. A radiolabeled 20-amino-acid αvβ6-binding peptide, derived from the foot and mouth virus (NAVPNLRGDLQVLAQKVART [A20FMDV2]), has been developed to image αvβ6 levels preclinicall...

Translocator protein as an imaging marker of macrophage and stromal activation in rheumatoid arthritis pannus (2018)
Journal Article
Narayan, N., Owen, D. R., Mandhair, H., Smyth, E., Carlucci, F., Saleem, A., …Taylor, P. C. (2018). Translocator protein as an imaging marker of macrophage and stromal activation in rheumatoid arthritis pannus.

PET radioligands targeted to translocator protein (TSPO) offer a highly sensitive and specific means of imaging joint inflammation in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Through high expression of TSPO on activated macrophages, TSPO PET has been widely report...
