  • Publication number: 20230022032
    Abstract: The present invention relates to tumor-targeted probes for use as medicaments and for use in treatment of cancer and to methods of treatment wherein such probes are used. The probes consist of a light-absorbing molecule linked directly or via a spacer to a peptide targeting the urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR). When irradiating the light-absorbing molecule of the probe with laser beams from an external source heat will be released locally to tumor cells expressing uPAR resulting in tumor ablation.

  • Patent number: 11554261
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a system for generating a predefined electrical signal in an MR scanner for use in electrical stimulation of a subject during MRI or functional MRI of said subject, wherein said MR scanner is located inside a shielded MRI room. The system comprises a control unit to be located outside the MRI room for generating an electrical signal and an electrical to optical converter to be located outside the MRI room for converting said electrical signal to a corresponding optical signal. An optical transmitting element, such as an optical fiber, is used for transmitting the optical signal into the MRI room, and an optical to electrical converter is used for converting the optical signal to said predefined electrical signal for electrical stimulation of the subject during magnetic resonance imaging. The optical to electrical converter is configured for being located inside the MRI room and for operation during magnetic resonance imaging.

  • Publication number: 20190125903
    Abstract: There is provided a novel conjugate that binds to the cell surface receptor uPA (uPAR). The conjugate is based on a fluorescence-labeled peptide useful as a diagnostic probe to the surfaces of cells expressing uPAR. The conjugate is capable of carrying a suitable detectable and imageable label that will allow qualitative detection and also quantitation of uPAR levels in vitro and in vivo. This renders the surgical resection of tumors more optimal.
