Abstract

See full text

Molecular probes directed to the delta opioid receptor and associated methods of use as non-invasive diagnostics for lung cancer are presented. The molecular probes generally consist of a ligand (Dmt-Tic) that is conjugated to a detection moiety such as a fluorescent dye or a radionuclide by a linker molecule. Once the probe is administered, it may be detected by a molecular imaging device to locate tumors for treatment or removal. Also presented are novel markers for lung cancer including, but not limited to, CA9, CA12, CTAG2, CXorf61, DSG3, FAT2, KISS1R, GPR87, LYPD3, OPRD1, SLC7A11 and TMPRSS4. Probes may be developed that can target these cell surface markers.
