Brillouin microscopy allows mechanical investigations of biological materials at the subcellular level and can be integrated with Raman spectroscopy for simultaneous chemical mapping, thus enabling a more comprehensive interpretation of biomechanics. The present study investigates different in vitro glioblastoma models using a combination of Brillouin and Raman microspectroscopy. Spheroids of the U87-MG cell line and two patient-derived cell lines as well as patient-derived organoids were used.

Dimeric fibroblast activation protein inhibitor (FAPI) radioligands are promising candidates for theranostic applications because of their enhanced tumor uptake and prolonged retention compared to monomeric radioligands. Several linker strategies have been investigated to connect two FAPI motifs and a radiometal chelator in a dimer design. In this study, we report the development of a novel dimeric FAPI radioligand, [Ga]Ga-, which utilizes a triazine core as a trifunctional linker.

Tay-Sachs disease (TSD) is a neurodegenerative disorder caused by a deficiency in β-hexosaminidase A (HexA), which accumulates GM2 gangliosides, primarily in neurons. Currently, therapeutic options are limited, highlighting the need for new strategies such as gene therapy. Despite their effectiveness, viral vectors can elicit adverse immune responses; consequently, non-viral vectors are being explored as an alternative.

Fibroblast activation protein inhibitors (FAPIs) labeled with gallium-68 and lutetium-177 show potential for use in the diagnosis and treatment of various cancers expressing FAP. However, Lu-labeled FAPIs often exhibit short tumor retention time, limiting their therapeutic applications. To improve tumor retention, we synthesized three radiolabeled dimeric FAPIs, [F], [Cu], and [Ga].

Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) is a target for treating B-cell malignancies and autoimmune diseases. To aid in the discovery and development of BTK inhibitors and improve clinical diagnoses, we have developed a positron emission tomography (PET) radiotracer based on a selective BTK inhibitor, remibrutinib. [F]PTBTK3 is an aromatic, F-labeled tracer that was synthesized in 3 steps with a 14.
