A New Class of Stable Heptamethine Cyanine Fluorophores and Biomedical Applications Thereof

Abstract: Heptamethine cyanines are among the most widely used near-IR fluorophores. The near-IR range (between about 650 nm and 900 nm) is very useful for imaging applications due to the absence of background autofluorescence. Despite extensive use, many of these fluorophores suffer from chemical instability. Specifically, most of the current and commonly...

Near-IR Light-Cleavable Antibody Conjugates and Conjugate Precursors

Abstract: This invention describes a general way to trigger the release of a bioactive small molecule from a targeting antibody. The key “trigger” is a fluorescent linker that is chemically disassembled upon irradiation with light in the near-IR range (~800 nm). This linker technology is a dramatic step forward for the field. The molecules can be tracked...
