In pursuit of radiolabeled monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) with rapid urinary excretion of radioactivity from nontarget tissues, radioiodinated mAbs releasing a m-iodohippuric acid from the mAbs in nontarget tissues were designed. A novel reagent, maleimidoethyl 3-(tri-n-butylstannyl)hippurate (MIH), was synthesized by reacting N-(hydroxyethyl)maleimide with N-Boc-glycine before coupling with N-succinimidyl 3-(tri-n-butylstannyl)benzoate (ATE). MIH possessed a maleimide group for mAb conjugation and a butylstannyl moiety for high-yield and site-specific radioiodination, and the two functional groups were linked via an ester bond to release m-iodohippuric acid. To investigate the fate of radiolabels after lysosomal proteolysis, hepatic parenchymal cells were used as a model nontarget tissue and 131I-labeled MIH was conjugated with galactosyl-neoglycoalbumin (NGA). Further conjugation of MIH with a mAb against osteogenic sarcoma (OST7) after reduction of its disulfide bonds was followed up. In murine biodistribution studies, MIH-NGA exhibited rapid accumulation in the liver followed by radioactivity elimination from the liver at a rate that was identical to and faster than those of 131I-labeled NGA via direct iodination (NGA) and ATE-labeled NGA, respectively. While NGA indicated high radioactivity levels in the murine neck, stomach, and blood, such increases in the radioactivity count were not detectable by the administration of either MIH-NGA or ATE-NGA. At 6 h postinjection of MIH-NGA, 80percent of the injected radioactivity was recovered in the urine. Analyses of urine samples indicated that m-iodohippuric acid was the sole radiolabeled metabolite. In biodistribution studies using MIH-OST7 and ATE-OST7, while both 131I-labeled OST7s registered almost identical radioactivity levels in the blood up to 6 h postinjection, the former demonstrated a lower radioactivity level than ATE-OST7 in nontarget tissues throughout the experiment. Such chemical and biological characteristics of MIH would enable high target/nontarget ratios in diagnostic and therapeutic nuclear medicine using mAbs and other polypeptides.

Several bifunctionally reactive linkers containing halide or sulfonate ester groups were prepared.The linkers were used to quaternize 5-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-(4-pyridyl)oxazole and 2-(6-chromanyl)-5-(4-pyridyl)oxazole to produce fluorescent stains that contained a reactive group such as an isothiocyanate, an N-hydroxysuccinimidyl ester, a maleimide, or an oxirane.The stains were derivatized with either 1-propyl-amine, 1-propanethiol, or piperidine, as appropriate, to help in characteriazation.The stains may serve as more photostable alternatives to fluoresceins or coumarins.
