Characterization of FBEM-scVEGF conjugates and [18F]FBEM-scVEGF. (A) Inhibition of Cy5.5-scVEGF (Red) binding to VEGFR2 overexpressed on PAE/KDR cells by different concentrations of non-labeled scVEGF and FBEM-conjugated scVEGF. (B) The IC50 values were 19.98±5.39 µg/ml and 13.99±1.80 µg/ml for FBEM-scVEGF and scVEGF, respectively as determined by relative fluorescence units derived from images in (A) by Image J software. (C) In gel autoradiography showed that 18F-FBEM-scVEGF existed as a mixture of monomer and dimer. (a-d) showed scVEGF protein and [18F]FBEM-scVEGF stained with Coomassie blue (a and b, respectively), or autoradiography (c and d, respectively). (D) Cell uptake, internalization and efflux (E) assay of [18F]FBEM-scVEGF on PAE/KDR cells. Data were from 2 experiments with triplicate samples and are expressed as mean ± SD. AD, total added dose.
