ABSTRACT

A d-glucose-MAG(3) derivative was successfully synthesized and radiolabeled in high labeling yield. Biodistribution studies in Ehrlich tumor-bearing mice were performed. This compound showed high accumulation in tumor tissue with high tumor-to-muscle ratio and moderate tumor-to-blood ratio. Thus, d-glucose-MAG(3) is a potential agent for tumor diagnosis.
