Latest progress and prospect of NRP-1 targeted molecular probes for breast cancer diagnosis by CAI Shuyue, XIE Quan, ZHOU Yuxuan, LIU Qingzhu, QIU Ling, LIN Jianguo

“…The expression and distribution of NRP-1 in breast cancer can be detected by nuclear medicine, optical imaging and multimodal imaging methods in a non-invasive, real-time and accurate manner, which has significant application value in the early diagnosis, staging, treatment, and prognosis evaluation of breast cancer. Nuclear medicine probes specifically target tumor cells or tissues by combining radionuclides (e.g., 68Ga and 99mTc) with specific molecular ligands, and the signal is captured using positron emission tomography (PET) or single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), allowing for sensitive diagnosis of breast cancer. …”
